Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry

Head on a science apart

Questions of science, science and progress

Do not speak as loud as my heart

Tell me you love me, come back and haunt me

Oh and I rush to the start

Running in circles, chasing our tails

Coming back as we are

Noboday said it was easy
