A love song dedicated to my neurodiverse friends (who remind me regularly that I am rather neurospicy myself!) Many of which have found love in their own unique ways. This is my entry to the SSC contest. Enjoy friends! <3 <3 <3 --------------------------- [Verse 1] They say you can fall "head over heels" for someone But if I'm stood up ain't my head already there? They laughed at my bewilderment, I sat there stunned With laughs and chat and noises polluting the air Over-analyse the banter, over a pint Fall apart in The Crown as a laughing stock But you cut through the noise: "She's technically correct" And smiled in my direction to everyone's shock [Pre-Chorus 1] Eighty-five decibels dropped All the panic in me stopped Nobody understands me You are my anomaly [Chorus 1] 'Cause butterflies are just a stomach pain And metaphors can be misconstrued I need a graph so I can explain I need a metric for how I love you [Verse 2] I could count the eight-hundred and forty paces to your door I could Oyster tap in peak hours just to see you at half-four I could brave the noisy Tesco's just to buy you what you need I could track the times you pull your sleeve to say it's time to leave I promise you I'll find a way to tell you how I feel I promise you it'll be precise and based on something real I promise you I won't profess a mindless platitude I promise you I'd walk the exact distance that you ask me to [Pre-Chorus 2] All the variables align Every data point is fine Nobody understands me You are my anomaly [Chorus 2] 'Cause butterflies are just a stomach pain And metaphors can be misconstrued I've got the data so I can explain Laid out exactly for how I love you [Bridge] They write all these anthems in black and white Like a switch is flipped in your eyes at first sight Like love is just for people whose brains are right They should know we found love on the spectrum tonight [Final Chorus] 'Cause butterflies are just a stomach pain And metaphors can be misconstrued The graph is broken but the data's true You are the metric for how I love you [Outro] Love on the spectrum Love on the spectrum Love on the spectrum...
