lyrics

Drake and I were drinking stolen wine
we had taken straight from his hotel.
We had known each other quite a time;
we decided that we should make out.

He was turning over all my bones
like a row of shells upon a shelf.
I had got the feeling he had known
me as well as I had known myself.

And all...around...the streets...of Rome...
he found...the golden...ratio
Measuring in three by five
the interface of hand and eye.

Sometimes I am getting in the zone.
I compile a million miles of dreams.
By my replicating ratios,
I can scale a solid scaffolding
to a roof where I can see the stars,
then I'm looking back upon the sea,
and the salt is rusting all the bars
that I climbed to find the golden mean

And all...around...the streets...of Rome...
I found...the golden...ratio
multiply to six by ten,
and then...divide...and start again.
