[Verse 2 & 3] (0:15-)
I ride tandem with a random
Things don't run (in) the way I planned them
In the humdrum
In the humdrum
Hey Valentina, do you want me to beg?
You got me cooking I'm a hard boiled egg
In the humdrum
In the humdrum

As a bow, so a dove, as below, so a-bove

From the black hole,

With the dark soul in coal she burn, she

Didn't dare look where I had begun

Lost among echoes of things not there,

Watching the sound forming shapes in the air
