Lyrics & Translation
English
You can be my alphabet and I will be your calculator
And together we'll work out on the escalator
I will time you as you run up to down
And you'll measure my footsteps as I blow through this town
The mean of our heights is divided by the nights
Which is times'd by the daggers and the root of all our fights,
The pass of your poem just to swathe me in your knowing
And the beauty of the word is that you don't have to show it
Oh, academia, you can pick me up
Soothe me with your words when I need your love
I am a dash and you are a dot
When will you see that I am all that you've got
I'm a binary code that you cracked long ago
But to you I'm just a novel that you wish you'd never wrote
I'm greater than X and lesser than Y, so why is it
That I still can't catch your eye?
You're a cryptic crossword, a song I've never heard
While I sit here drawing circles I'm afraid of being hurt
Oh, academia, you can pick me up
Soothe me with your words when I need your love
You're a difficult equation with a knack for heart evasion
Will you listen to my proof or will you add another page on
It appears to me the graph has come and stolen all the laughs
It appears to me the pen is over-analysed again
And if I am a number I'm infinity plus one
And if you are five words you are afraid to be the one
And if you are a number you're infinity plus one
And if I am four words then I am "Needing of your love"
Oh, academia, you can pick me up
Soothe me with your words when I need your love

Academia (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Tú puedes ser mi alfabeto y yo seré tu calculadora
Y juntos nos ejercitaremos en la escalera mecánica
Te cronometraré mientras corres de arriba a abajo
Y medirás mis pasos mientras recorro esta ciudad
La media de nuestras alturas se divide por las noches
Lo cual se multiplica por las dagas y la raíz de todas nuestras peleas,
El paso de tu poema solo para envolverme en tu saber
Y la belleza de la palabra es que no tienes que mostrarla
Oh, academia, puedes levantarme
Calmarme con tus palabras cuando necesito tu amor
Yo soy un guion y tú eres un punto
¿Cuándo verás que soy todo lo que tienes?
Soy un código binario que descifraste hace mucho tiempo
Pero para ti soy solo una novela que desearías nunca haber escrito
Soy mayor que X y menor que Y, entonces ¿por qué es
Que todavía no puedo llamar tu atención?
Eres un crucigrama críptico, una canción que nunca he oído
Mientras me siento aquí dibujando círculos, tengo miedo de ser herida
Oh, academia, puedes levantarme
Calmarme con tus palabras cuando necesito tu amor
Eres una ecuación difícil con una habilidad para evadir el corazón
¿Escucharás mi prueba o añadirás otra página?
Me parece que el gráfico ha venido y se ha robado todas las risas
Me parece que el bolígrafo ha sido sobreanalizado de nuevo
Y si soy un número, soy infinito más uno
Y si eres cinco palabras, tienes miedo de ser la única
Y si eres un número, eres infinito más uno
Y si soy cuatro palabras, entonces soy "Necesitando tu amor"
Oh, academia, puedes levantarme
Calmarme con tus palabras cuando necesito tu amor
