lyrics
I found you love, through divine inspiration
Now, after years, your health has complications
And my faith has failed, so I turn to science
I’ll find a way. I can’t be alone. I can’t live without you.
I’ll search both far and wide for anything to try
To keep you safe and right here by my side
I’ve tinkered on all my failed inventions
And crying out all of my frustrations
I’ve tried to invent cures on my own
I’ve tried both real and obscure things I know
I’m doing all I can for you
We’ve tried every cure from distant lands
The skills of every medicine man
And still I’m nowhere closer to saving you
Cause I’ve tried and tried to find the equation
Fingers ache and mind needs elation
From knowing there’s nothing more I can do for you
Cause every time I see your face
More anemic every day
It only gets harder and harder and harder and harder
So what now? I can only figure
That the answer lies somewhere in science
Now, after years, your health has complications
And my faith has failed, so I turn to science
I’ll find a way. I can’t be alone. I can’t live without you.
I’ll search both far and wide for anything to try
To keep you safe and right here by my side
I’ve tinkered on all my failed inventions
And crying out all of my frustrations
I’ve tried to invent cures on my own
I’ve tried both real and obscure things I know
I’m doing all I can for you
We’ve tried every cure from distant lands
The skills of every medicine man
And still I’m nowhere closer to saving you
Cause I’ve tried and tried to find the equation
Fingers ache and mind needs elation
From knowing there’s nothing more I can do for you
Cause every time I see your face
More anemic every day
It only gets harder and harder and harder and harder
So what now? I can only figure
That the answer lies somewhere in science
