desert pacific octopi - squalloscope lyrics

[verse 1]
the desert is a strange place to be
when you’re looking for an ocean on your knees
i’ve come all this way, so i guess i’ll stay
there is an explanation for everything
the desert is a strange place to go
but the buses stop anywhere the wind blows
i saw a helicopter fly towards an unfamiliar glow in the evening sky

[hook]
and all the while
and all the while
you were looking at me with your solar eclipse eye
desert pacific octopi
how long did you look for hidden messages in what i wrote?
part of me wishes you never really stopped
part of me wishes you never, you never really stopped

[verse 2]
the desert is a lost place for those
who get so terribly distracted by empty rooms
but they built houses just in time to collect our precious lives
on mantlepieces all over town
i watch the holes in the skyline
like the gaps in the wave form [?]
i learned
i got such a big backpack. it is pulling me down
but it’s kinda where i am now, it’s kinda where i come from

[bridge]
rooftops are dripping with words they have written
in times when their hearts and the cities were smitten
and the parking lot where we secretly met
holds the imprint of our fingertips when the concrete was wet
and my lips are sewn shut and my hips are boulders
for ships that won’t come to crash on my bones
i run to where the stray dogs won’t find me
where the broadcast breaks off
where the darkness and the ocean align
