Dearest, Sweetest Math Rock Kid,
Battles are touring.
I have nothing cynical to say, so let's live in this sweetest, rare, life-giving moment.
Seriously:
Let's dance like no one's watching. Let's laugh often, and loud, and with -- not at -- each other. Let's hang poorly-decaled wall signs over our dressers that say "Dance as if no one is watching, sing as if no one is listening, love as if you've never been hurt," to further remind ourselves to dance... sing... and love. Let's look deeply into each others' eyes, run in fields barefoot, bask in the moonlight, and wear cut-offs. Let's go joy-riding, reader, baby sweetheart! Then, let's sit back in Adirondack chairs, sip lemonade, and enjoy an abridged version of these dated MTV pseudo-band remix lyrics.
Battles are touring, and we are in love, and drinking lemonade, and life is beautiful. Close your eyes dearest, sweetest math rock kid. Let’s listen, and dance, and live for love...

We'll I've never been good at history
And I don't give a crap
About Robert E. Lee
When it comes to close signs
I know a thing or two
And I kicked ass on the test about me and you
I know my calculus it says
You plus me equals us
Said I know my calculus
It says you plus me equals us
What the world needs right now is boy bands
Perfect, no problem, I've got a boy band
Boy band (x4)
What I need now
Is my troublemaker
I know where the bad boys hang out
Girl, Algebra or trigonometry
Could never equal up to what you do to me (do to me)
So let's integrate
Don't differentiate
If you were in my class
There ain't no way I could pass (way I could pass)
I hate English, gym
And not to mention
I can't even afford to pay my attention (pay my attention)
No philosophy could ever come between us
But we'll always have our calculus
