I trace the lines between yes and no
A path I'll take, a seed I'll sow
Every step a fraction of the heart
Every number a world apart
I weighed the risks, I measured pain
Counted losses, counted gain
But in the end it's never voiced
Just the mathematics of a simple choice
One wrong step, the sun can shift
One silent word can change the dread
The mathematics of a simple choice
Can break the quiet or lift the voice
The smallest act can start a storm
Keep the fragile heart warm I calculate,
I hesitate
But fate decides what we create The mathematics of a simple choice
Is every whisper,
every noise
Maybe life is numbers and chance A dance of luck,
a fleeting glance
Maybe hearts are equations unsolved A puzzle that can't be resolved
Yet in the chaos I still find
A rhythm, a reason intertwined
The mathematics of a simple choice Can raise the lost,
can mute the voice
The smallest step,
a quiet try Can turn the earth or change the sky
I weigh,
I count,
I hold,
I stop But only love defines the heart
The mathematics of a simple choice
The sum of us,
the sum of which
