Numbers

              Dm
Count up your portion, count up your checks
              F
Either you're fam or you're comin' at my neck
               C
When you gonna freeze with the cool dramatics?
          Am
I'm not inspired by your foolish practice
           Dm
Why do you bullxxxx? Side up your fence
           F
I'm just a chicken givin' you the egg
                   C
Soon, you're gonna see that your breath was wasted
                Am
Don't speak too soon on your doubts you're making

a big deal out of a little thing
G                              F
Why should I try to conform to formulated pasts
     Dm                              E
When clearly all my instincts led to something more magical?
 

Am                           Dm
am I just a number 'cause it seems like that's your goal?
    F                               E
You push us past our limits just to watch decimals grow
Am                          Dm
Oh, I need a reason why I'm looked at like a joke
F                                      E
Until I prove you wrong like I've done time and time before
G                                        Dm
And I don't like your teachings and your criticisms lack
    Am                         E
The potential to pageantry, my solid golden path
   Am                          Dm
To this, I hope my future is a mile, clairvoyant
        F                  E
There's no controlling the imagination on a send
 

           Dm
Take me to Venus, let me explode
             F
I'm ready to pop like a volcano
          C
Jump over me like you're playing hot lava
            Am
Emotions on one hundred thousand, who's gonna
              Dm
Drink me like soda? People, of course
             F
Use all your words to distract from the source
             C
Aware of the growth, the paper happens
         Am
Leave me alone in my own concoction
G                             F
Breakin' all my fingertips to carve out many roads
Dm                              E
Pushin' out the petals from the thought of what I know
 
 
Am                           Dm
am I just a number 'cause it seems like that's your goal?
    F                               E
You push us past our limits just to watch decimals grow
Am                          Dm
Oh, I need a reason why I'm looked at like a joke
F                                      E
Until I prove you wrong like I've done time and time Before
    G                        Dm
And all my intuition says is expansion comes first
    Am                        E
But watch us buy material and talkin' 'bout in here
   Am                              Dm
My heart space and my cranium must belong to my dear
      F                             E
Don't push me to the edge until I'm useless and can't feel
     F                         Am
They replaced their search for knowledge
         Dm
With the reach of many material gains
              F                 Am
They lack the tenderness of the sensitive
Dm
Empathetic but he's cryin' from the pain
         F                  Am
It's too late to grow their frame
         Dm
In their mind, seems like it's already made
          F            Am
No use in arguin' with someone who doesn't
      Dm                      F  E  Dm
Wanna cry or retice worthy of creation


F                E
Am I just a number?
Dm
Am I just a number?
F                E
Am I just a number?
Dm
Am I just a number?


Dm          F                E
Am I just a number 'cause it seems like that's your goal?
    Dm
You push us past our limits just to watch our numbers grow
F                           E
Oh, I need a reason why I'm looked at like a joke
Dm
Until I prove you wrong like I've done time and time before
F                            Em
And all my intuition says is expansion comes first
    Dm
But watch us buy material and talkin' 'bout in here
   F                                  Am
My heart space and my cranium must be love to my dear
Dm
Don't push me to the edge until I'm useless and can't feel
