107,602,707,791, that's the number of people who have ever lived,
but you tell me there's never been anyone quite like me,
4,949,724,558,386, that's how many chromosomes have rusted along this planet's edge until they found the perfect combition along your DNA,
53,801,353,895, that's how many couples could have happened, would have happened, maybe even should've happened,
6.7% of people in the world are depressed, have been depressed, will be depressed,
107,602,707,791 times 6.7%,
that's 7,209,381,422 people who haven't met you,
I'm no mathematician but you're in all the numbers of my body
