Testo Standard Deviation - Danny Schmidt
Testo della canzone Standard Deviation (Danny Schmidt), tratta dall'album Standard Deviation
A chalkboard full of secrets
It was like some kind of code
To tell the stars and planets how to fall and how to glow
But when she turned to face the classroom
There was chalk upon her nose
Like the ghost of Madame Curie or a clown in women's clothes
And the boys dismissed the work so quick they laughed at her instead
As just a girl spilled some numbers from her head
Late night in the library
In the basement by herself
Alone amongst the books again at home between the shelves
Oh she was searching for some answers
When she stumbled in the dark
On a girl with colored pencils and black eyes like question marks
And they said hello in stereo
Then they both just stood and stared
As a normal sort of silence filled the air
The girl asked her what she studied
And what she read so late at night
The thoughts that filled her notebooks
And the stars that filled her eyes
Oh but she said she couldn't tell her
She said she'd just get bored
It was a story told in numbers not a story told in words
But the girl just laughed and leaned right back
Said try me if you dare
'Cause a story's when there's something more to share
So she shrugged and her hands began to speak
A dance of differentials and of poetry in Greek
She saw from new dimensions
Vibrations of the strings
And from a single derivation all the worlds could rise to be
And she drew concentric circles with her finger in the air
They glowed where there were no two
The manifold they shared
And in being perfect symmetry
Joined in all degrees
They touched in ways that no one else could see
Well the girl's eyes lit with fire
Like milk and kerosene
It was the smartest thing she'd ever heard
And the hottest thing she'd seen
So she grabbed her by the brain stem
And she threw her to the floor
And they kissed like their equations
Had never balanced quite before
'Cause every lonesome thesis
Just describes the unobserved
There's always one who'll fall upon
The tail of every curve
There's so many locks
So many doors
So many twisted keys
Within the standard deviation from me
There's so many locks
So many doors
So many twisted keys
Within the standard deviation from me
