[al:Some People Have Real Problems]

[00:01.15]Sia - Academia
[00:08.01]You can be my alphabet
[00:09.80]And I will be your calculator
[00:11.76]And together we’ll work out on the escalator
[00:15.40]I will time you as you run up to down
[00:18.92]And you will measure my footsteps as I pleasure this town
[00:22.71]The mean of our heights is divided by the Nights
[00:26.02]Which is timesd by the daggers in the root of all our fights
[00:30.00]The pass of your poem is to sway me in your knowing
[00:33.45]And the beauty of the word is that you don’t have to show it
(Chorus:)
[02:06.64][01:22.57][00:37.59]Oh Academia, you can pick me up,
[02:14.89][01:30.65][00:46.30]soothe me with your words when I need your love.
[00:52.43]I am a dash and you are a dot,
[00:55.92]when will you see that I am all that you’ve got?
[00:59.63]I’m a binary code that you cracked long ago,
[01:02.87]but to you I’m just a novel that you wish you never wrote
[01:06.90]I’m greater than x, and lesser than y
[01:10.55]So why is it that I still can’t catch your eye?
[01:14.38]You’re a cryptic crossword, a song I’ve never heard
[01:17.72]While I’m sitting here drawing circles I’m afraid of being hurt
(chorus)
[01:36.32]You’re a difficult equation with a knack for heart evasion
[01:39.98]Will you listen to my proof or will you add another page on?
[01:44.10]It appears to me the graph has come and stolen all the laughs
[01:47.43]It appears to me the pen is over analyzed again
[01:51.44]And if I am a number I’m infinity plus one
[01:54.99]And if you are five words you are afraid to be the one
[01:58.75]And if you are a number, you’re infinity plus one
[02:02.27]And if I’m four words then I am needing of your love.
(chorus)
[02:40.22]Oooh Academia, Academia, Academia
[02:54.27]Oooh Academia, Academia, Academia
