Faith By Numbers

President Romana


Stay away from me, don't you dare
I'm a social misfit, anyway; why should you care?

Leave me alone!
Leave me alone!
You used me just like he did; you're just as bad as fenric
I'll be a pawn in no one's game; no, I won't let you win again
When overall there's so much to be lost
Leave me alone!
Leave me alone!

Where did he go? The kind professor
The stupid prat who doffed his hat
Just like a gentleman with gentlemanly charm?
I've come to think I never knew you
You're always hiding, not confiding in me
Always cos you think you'll do me harm

You can't count faith by numbers
You can't win wars with words
You can't treat me like I'm nothing
I've got nothing to say to you
But I can't stand by in silence
I won't keep secrets like your own
I'm not a kid; stop treating me
Like I can't cope alone

I understand your clever motives
'Cos I'm not blind; I think you'll find
That I appreciate it's for the greater good
But if you think that I'll excuse it
Then think again; how could I when
You tore my faith in two like no friend ever should?

You can't count faith by numbers
You can't win wars with words
You can't treat me like I'm nothing
I've got nothing to say to you
But I can't stand by in silence
I won't keep secrets like your own
I'm not a kid; stop treating me
Like I can't cope alone

You said days like crazy paving, before I learned the truth
Back when I was first invited to walk that path with you
But you made me walk it blindfold
Which I did without a fight
You knew about this all along and now I see the light

You can't count faith by numbers
You can't win wars with words
You can't treat me like I'm nothing
I've got nothing to say to you
But I can't stand by in silence
I won't keep secrets like your own
I'm not a kid; stop treating me
Like I can't cope alone

You can't count faith by numbers
You can't win wars with words
You can't treat me like I'm nothing
I've got nothing to say to you
