Blue Screen of Death

Well, I was thinking about Paramore's My Heart in class the other day and how it has the lyric "my heart, it beats for only you." In the middle of a huge crush at the moment, I of course applied it to my current situation. But then I thought about how, really, of course my heart doesn't beat only for that guy. It beats, well, 'cause my brain tells it to (more or less, I think, I dunno).
And so this happened. I don't know quite what it is, but... I sort of like it. (Also, the 2012 only happens to be my graduation year/end of the world/this coming year by accident. It's a math thing, really. ((if someone wants to figure it out, hint hint--it's in base 35! ..sort of... kinda...)))

While it's a false statement to say my heart beats only for you
'Cause it's actually 'cause my brain tells it to
It's a little bit true
that when you come near
it beats faster and faster
And I can't breathe thought i should be able to
But my brain freezes up
My heart beats faster and faster, lungs shut down
Numbers and words come easy
'til you're around

You're my blue screen of death
Shutting me down
The wires cross and it doesn't work
There's been a fatal error
Nothing works but shutting down

Reboot the system, starting over
You're not here, yet the thoughts still linger
Brain moves sloooowlyyy, doesn't compute
A total system failure is eminent
I can't let go

You're my blue screen of death
Shutting me down
The wires cross and it doesn't work
There's been a fatal error
Nothing works but shutting down

two-oh-one-two
It's what I want to say
But that's not quite right, either

You're my blue screen of death
Shutting me down
The wires cross and it doesn't work
There's been a fatal error
Nothing works but shutting down

two-oh-one-two
I like you...
