Emily Axford
Quantum Vacuum Collapse
[Verse 1]
Why, oh why
Why did I fall for a scientist?
Given all I knew would befall with a physicist
Your trade, your profession
Quantum separation
And me with my heart bent on reparation

[Chorus]
Your microscope studies, your white-coated buddies
Late nights in the lab
Fluorescent and drab
And me with cold dinner, daily grown thinner
With want for you, need for you, sick for you, sick for -
Achoo, ooh, ooh (Ooh, ooh)

[Verse 2]
You pushed the button
The button that started the end
You pushed the button
The button that started the end

[Chorus]
My life, it started the day that we met
It's only poetic that you press reset
On a game that ain't workin', it's frozen
You're so hard to reach
When the numbers and formulas quiet your speech
You play God, you play king
You make nature your whore
I play dumb, I'm complicit, I'm so -
[Bridge]
Particles, mismatched, reference and facts
Cosmic drunk drivers, microscopic suiciders

[Chorus]
Collision, explosion, subatomic implosion
Destructive surges, a black hole emerges
Time and space fracture, disaster near rapture
Gravity bends

[Post-Chorus]
I'm not mad, I'm not mad, I'm not angry
I'm not mad, I'm not mad, I'm not angry

[Verse 3]
As the particles of me
And the muscle and tissue
Splinter and fragment
I already miss you (Miss you)
