Thinnnnnnnk of me
Very scientifically
Share your thoughts with me
Send them over land and sea
They seep through walls
Echo down abandoned halls
They cling to skin
And penetrate the bones within
Let me see your joy and fear
Be you far away, so near
How can it be, we never seem to see
What we have until it's gone
Why is it so, we never know
What we have until it's gone
The more i try
All the faster you'll slip by
There things are never free
But then again, they shouldnt be
So vaaaaaporize
Slide to me like liquid ice
I loooooong to be
The object of your school, see me
I can see into your eyes
The deepest blue of winter skies
Why is it so, we never know
What we have until it's gone
Until we burn, we'll never learn
What we have until it's gone
Ssssscientificl-cl-cl-cl-cl
Sssscientificl-cl-cl-cl-cl
I can see into your eyes
The deepest blue of winter skies!
Why is it so, we never know
What we have until it's gone
Until we burn, we never learn
What we have until it's gone
