“One and One Equals Four is a song, that is about me, being in love with several people at the same time. I was in a relationship and fell in love with two other people and I wanted to explore and find out, how it can work that it all exists at the same time. But it is not the same for everyone. Tha...
[Verse 1]
There's an ocean between you and me that can’t be overcome
Put all the feelings back to where they came from
Then take me away from here
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
[Pre-Chorus]
Here we are again and I'm trying to explain what it means
To be free of our present tense society
Won't you tell me what’s on your mind?
Oh, I need more, and one and one equals four
[Chorus]
How come this is proof of sticking to my beliefs?
I think I need to run away on tour overseas
Do you still care what we were before?
Let's get on a train and leave, don't let go of me
[Verse 2]
These days the wind blows colder from the sea
You're out of touch and it scares the life out of me
It crawls up my spine, spreads out all over the back of my head
You said: I am just another chore for you to get done
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh it tears me up to see you on stage
I keep my heart shut when I stand in the crowd
Now all I do is sit around in hallways with my head against the wall
Oh, I'm so tired
The words are dripping down the walls and I slide down the door
Oh, you really fucked me up
[Chorus]
How come this is proof of sticking to my beliefs
I think I need to run away on tour overseas
Do you still care what we were before
Let's get on a train and leave, don't let go of me
[Outro]
I'm drowning in work, don’t you know
Trying to keep my head above the water
Tomorrow, I will reap if you’d only help me sow
I'm barren and worn-out to the bone
Push me a little harder love and I’ll sink like a stone
