the remainder

one and one and one is two

all this and more you said was true

and if you'd left me ground to stand on

i'd run so far away from you

what do you do with a remainder?

you round it up or round it down

and if you're scared by what you're left with

destroy the answer that you've found

you were the one

when the day had begun

the sun was shining on us

blinding me such

that i couldn't see

there was a hole beneath me

and then you watched me fall

with no expression at all

there is an absolute zero

but you won't find it on your own

only someone else can show you nothing

and leave you with a gaping hole

you were the one

when the storm rolled in

the sky was grey like your heart

with no color at all

i don't know you like this

you're as reckless as wind

and i couldn't predict

just the way this would end
