La pieuvre

Lyrics

I wouldn't care if you'd go now But I wouldn't dare to say it out loud Your eyes are mean, they're scaring me And I can't keep it calm From a thousand feet under the sea You call You spoke in tones I never heard before Your words were songs that shook me to the core I wish I'd known they'd bring me far from home I swam till my feet could touch the seabed I moved till my dreams weren't better than dead I came too close I burnt my nose and moaned But once I chose it I could never go back home I lost my heart to a giant, purple octopus And I sacrificed my life for a greater purpose I felt your body and it gave me chills I watched so closely it became surreal My time is gone I feel my lungs go numb And now I know I can never go back home I lost my heart to a giant, purple octopus And I sacrificed my life for a greater purpose
