Squalloscope Open Water Reckless Fishes
[INTRO]
A mountainous land of lonely cliffs, where brush- and tree-covered hills slope toward fertile inland valleys, and tumble steeply to the sea. Here, cold air rises from the chill waters flowing southward from Alaska, creating seasonal dense fogs that wrap the region in mystery
[VERSE 1]
It doesn't get much darker than this
RIDING THE TRAIN THROUGH THE ABYSS
Left all the good ones behind
NOT BECAUSE I WANTED TO BUT BECAUSE IT WAS TIME
I'VE COME A LONG WAY
NOW LET'S JUST LIE HERE, TELL ME HOW IT'S LIKE FAR OUT AT SEA
BUT YOU CAN'T GET TO THE POINT
SO I DOUBT THAT I CAN GIVE YOU ALL OF ME
[HOOK]
BUT WE LET SHIPS COLLIDE
BUT WE LET SHIPS COLLIDE
[Verse 2]
I JUMP INTO THE WATERS
EVERY TIME I DO IT'S NOT EVEN COLD
SO I JUST FLOAT
AND I WATCH YOU AS YOU WANT YOUR GOD TO WATCH OVER YOU
BUT YOU'D LIKE TO CHOOSE WHAT HE'S ALLOWED TO SEE
YOU REMOVE YOUR SIGN OF RELIGION
HE MAY SEE YOU DRINK BUT HE SHOULDN'T SEE ME
[VERSE 3]
I LOOK BACK INTO THE COUNTRY
WHERE I EMPTY MY HEAD WHILE IT KEEPS BEING REFILLED
WITH A MILLION DIFFERENT PEOPLE
RUNNING ON BAD COFFEE AND AIR CONDITIONING
AND IF YOU TELL ME YOUR STORY
I MIGHT EVEN TELL YOU MINE
BUT I MIGHT NEED TO GET OFF REAL SOON
I ALWAYS TAKE THE SEAT IN THE AISLE
BUT THEN TONIGHT
[HOOK]
WE LET our SHIPS COLLIDE[x4]
[VERSE 4]
MY PALE WHITE FINGERS
AGAINST THE LIGHT PALMS OF A HAND
AND THE LINES THAT CROSS THE SKIN ARE LIKE THE TELEPHONE WIRES I SAW CROSSING THE LAND
GREAT COMMUNICATORS
OUR STORYLINES MIGHT BE PAVED WITH LIES
BUT I REALLY DONT CARE, I'M GONNA USE YOU FOR MY OWN STORY TONIGHT
[HOOK]
WE LET OUR SHIPS COLLIDE[x13]
