Binary Pairs

I fell in love with static, its song my soothing balm
It echoes through my spirit just like David played for Saul
Once the tune has faded and I am blind to truth
I say my prayers in binary pairs and hope I make it through
I say my prayers in binary pairs and hope I make it through

Avarice, my lover, have I set the world on fire?
Will you leave me bitter or burning with desire?
I’ve shouted down my enemies and friends I thought I knew
Then I say my prayers in binary pairs and hope I make it through
I say my prayers in binary pairs and hope I make through

I’m betting on betrayal and how I’ll be done wrong
I’m anxious for tomorrow and if you’ll play along
So tell me that you’ll soothe me when words become my noose
As I say my prayers in binary pairs and hope I make it though
I say my prayers in binary pairs and hope I make it through
