Numbers

[Intro] [Radio static] Seven... Four... One... Nine... [Verse 1] Late at night, all alone Static hums through the phone Something pulls me in deep A rhythm I can't keep Signal fades, signal calls Numbers echo through walls oooo [Chorus] I see patterns in the static tonight Finding meaning in the lines of white I see patterns in the static tonight Finding meaning in the lines of white [Verse 2] Paper fills with my notes Every sequence that floats Through the shortwave machine More than what they might mean Calculations unfold (What's the message they hold?) ooooo [Chorus] I see patterns in the static tonight Finding meaning in the lines of white mmmm [Bridge] [Static builds] Four... Eight... Three... (distant voice: "Two... Nine...") Five... One... Six... (overlapping: "Seven... Four...") [Radio interference] The codes are calling My mind is falling Deep in numbers Can't break free [Static lower tone] [Verse 3] Mind consumed by the stream Every digit I glean Fills my walls with designs As I trace all the lines Till the dawn breaks the spell What they mean, I can't tell [Chorus] I see patterns in the static tonight Finding meaning in the lines of white I see patterns in the static tonight Finding meaning in the lines of white [electric guitar solo] [Verse 4] Numbers going in and out Filling me with dread and doubt Patterns begin to form As the first rays of light (ooooo) On this new dawn What they mean?, I can't tell (what can they mean?) [Chorus] I see patterns in the white noise Are they real or just, decoys? (are they?, are they? are they?, what Are they?) I see patterns in the white noise ooo ooo oo [repeat chorus] I see patterns in the white noise Are they real or just, decoys? (are they?, are they? are they?, what Are they?) [Outro] I see patterns in the white noise (ooooo) Are they real or just, decoys? (are they?, are they? are they?, what, Are, they?) [Ending]
