Lyrics La pieuvre - Groenland

La pieuvre

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
