I’ve been doing basic mathematics

I’ve been doing awful calculations

I learned that we’re almost at the age where

Our folks were when their folks passed away and

I’ve been doing the math and I

Can’t figure out how to live and let die

I want to feel alright about it

But I’m stuck at home doing mathematics

I’ve been doing math and finding out how

Old my dad was when he had my brother

Or what age my mom was when her mom died

And how close I am to halfwaythrough life

Add and subtract the years from the

Average of all the people that you

Rеference for somе kinda twisted metric

Holy fuck I really hate this shit

Four years older than my youngest uncle

When I was born, now he’s retired

Four years younger than Bruce when he wrote

Nebraska, so I’ve got time to pull it together

Looking at my age relative to

What other people managed to do

By 29, god it’s so pathetic

But my brain’s just stuck on mathematics

I hate how my face feels when i get too much sun:

Tired and worn out not things a boy my age should

Be feeling. Oh mercy, I’m fucked I’m spinning out now

I’m trying to slow down, thing is I just don’t know how

Add and subtract the years from the

Average of all the people that you

Back your life up against like a

Grade school recess measuring contest

Looking at my age relative to

What other people managed to do

By 29, god it’s so pathetic

But my brain’s just stuck on mathematics
