I run the numbers through the floor
Here's how it goes
I crack the codes I crack the codes
That end the war

The Hour

I pushed a note under your door
Here's how it goes
Things come to blows
But we don't want this anymore
No, we don't want this anymore
I crack the codes you end the war

I hear the clockwork in your core
Time strips the gears till you
Forget what they were for
I push the numbers through your pores
I crack the codes I crack the codes
To end the war

How's my living
You can call
Encrypted numbers
On bathroom stalls

There's something burning
It casts a pall
It's melting numbers right
Off the walls

    I think there's definitely something to that, although not necessarily in terms of wanting children... just the idea of a body and its physical desires as a clockwork mechanism, and with the gears being worn down by time and use so that you get to the point where you're just going through the motions without really feeling anything, or knowing why you're doing it. It could refer to sexuality, or just the state of being in a romantic relationship. Either way, it fits with the overall theme of the breakup song.
