Doug said his first priority with lyrics, is that they sounds great with the melody(he writes the melody first). I think there is a little philosopher in Doug as well. It has also been said his lyrics often has a different meaning from person to person. To me this song is about how a hard melancholic mind can confuse(math) a person so much that he/she can't consentrate about possibilities in the future.
