A very intriguing paradox indeed! A mismatch of science and emotions that has enough logic to keep your mind at bay while your heart races through both anticipation and pain. The use of imagery in combining these two seemingly opposing forces (emotion and logic) is excellently portrayed in the lyrics: "The time machine's stalling and stuck in first gear.." The ultimate result is something more than just a synthesis of predictable equations as "math and science: they don't care." It leaves us to feel that even in the unknown there is hope and something else to be believed... a greater calling that makes it right in the end..
