Lonely Squid - Northbound

Gossip is for children

And gospel is for saints

So where does that leave me?

The one who always runs away

Something isn’t right

Deep inside my brain

'Cause you bask in the light

But I’m stuck in the pain

Such a lonely squid

Always spitting ink

Behind the barricade is where your heart was hid

You didn’t want me back until you burried it

So I live underground until you let me in

And we melt

And we melt

And we melt

So while swimming here

A rough current hit

But then your arms got tired

And you let me sink

What a crooked way through my crooked teeth

Love your cigarette, it keeps burning me

And I melt

And it’s strange how it goes

From your head down to your toes

You watched a poor boy overdose

On being hurt and bravado

I’m not changing

Our time’s just wasted

I’ll never fake it

But all I know is you were better off before me
