Lyric

Octopus

OLDSKL

So bored now, slowly almost done

Day to day, this man still dreams of one

I collect what pulls me deep and numb

Tryna break away, you gotta cut and run?

Sometimes people move too fast

Quiet nights and crowds collide inside

Melting ice cream under summer skies

Clinging slow around my own throat tight

Maybe my way keeps on going, still strays, can’t reach you

So I swim through crowds, I sink in deep

I’m into falling way too steep

I don’t care about noise in my head

I just wanna hold your hand instead

I see bright red faces, dancing out of line

Heads low, just let go

Sticky thoughts keep pulling me inside

Still not turning into a love song, right

Maybe I just sank too deep tonight?

Seasons change, this city’s turning stone

She keeps dancing like she’s all alone

Never knew why everybody’s gone

All these little days inside the unknown

Yeah, I stay low

Black ink, low keys, slipping through the backstreets, every night

Small town, shut down, living where the whispers breathe, no one knows

Back then, let’s just play old games, same screen

No matter what I drink, I can’t find euphoria

In somebody else’s garden, new apples growing for ya

But I just wanna stay honest whenever I’m with you

Yeah, yeah, yeah

And maybe my way keeps on going, still strays, still loves you

So I swim through crowds, I sink in deep

I’m into falling way too steep

I don’t care about noise in my head

I just wanna hold your hand instead

I see bright red faces, dancing out of line

Heads low, just let go

Sticky thoughts keep pulling me inside

Still not turning into a love song, right

Swim through

Slowly sinking blue

Wrapped inside, moving slow tonight

Hold you

Nothing turning true

Open eyes, drifting out of sight

Maybe I was sinking all along tonight?
