Abacus
Chasing Shadows: Midnight Musings and Alphabetical Escapes
Lyrics
The grass is screaming long
The grass is experiencing a prolonged, intense sensation or is conveying a strong message or emotion.
Midnight cars roll past
There is a continuous flow of cars passing by during the nighttime.
I've been chasing your room
I've been searching or pursuing your space or place.
While the summer lasts
During the duration of summer.
So count it on your fingers
Calculate or evaluate something using fingers, possibly symbolizing a simple or personal method.
If we got it wrong
Reassessing or checking for errors in a previous understanding or situation.
It's 'cause the days have no numbers
Time is not easily quantifiable or structured.
If we leave tonight
If we depart this place or situation tonight.
Then we leave it all behind
Leaving everything connected to this moment or context.
Drinking alphabetically
Consuming or engaging with alcohol in an organized manner following the alphabet.
'Cause the beauty's gone all sore
The attractiveness or appeal has deteriorated or become unpleasant.
Honey dripping, paler skin
There's a description of honey dripping and the skin appearing paler, possibly indicating an eerie or unsettling atmosphere.
While there's bodies underneath, the floor
Despite the surface, there are concealed issues or problems.
So count it on your fingers
Repeating the action of calculating or reassessing using fingers.
If we got it wrong
Reiterating that mistakes might occur due to the absence of structured time.
It's 'cause the days have no numbers
Emphasizing the unpredictable nature of time.
If we leave tonight
If we decide to depart from this place or situation tonight.
Then we leave it all behind
Leaving everything behind that's associated with the current circumstance or context.
