I'm bored so I decided to throw down some lyrics here. This is Chemistry by Kimya Dawson.
My heart is on my sleeve, my head is in the sand
I said "how did we end up here?" you said "happenstance"
and I didn't understand, so I made other plans
And I ran to the ocean, washed the blood off of my hands
I washed away my tears
washed away 10 years
washed away the empty space inbetween my ears
and you said "all that I mean is you and me didn't meet because of fate, but rather probability"
and you said the truth's like corn and lies are like weeds
you said the Shrodinger Equation collapsed perfectly
and I said "mercy me, be patient please"
cuz i don't know a goddamn thing about the birds and the bees
i just know what i'm like and i'm like what i see
even though it's hard to see because you just blinded me
and if there's one thing i learned in chemistry
it's that the aim of electrons is reduction obviously
but you can't see electrons without machines
and you can't tell from my inflection if i'm being mean and
i don't know if i can take you seriously
sometimes the elections depend on the absentees
and my family and my friends and all the little kids who love me make me strong
and no matter how this ends i know i'll never ever ever be alone
one day i'll be an old lady
with a big dress, and an apron, a babushka, and bare feet
i'll be out in my garden on my hands and knees
and i'll be singing a song that is really sad and sweet
mommy
and daddy
your baby is grown
and the smell
of the cold wet dirt
reminds me of home
