Squalloscope Legends
[Verse 1]
WHEN I AM KING
YOU'RE GONNA BUILD ME A TIME MACHINE
BECAUSE AT NIGHT I CAN'T LET GO OF THOSE DREAMS
Where THE WHAT-IFS ARE STILL STRANGLING ME
AND WITH THIS RING I MARRIED THE CITY
ON ISLANDS WITH WHITE TILED FLOORS
AND THIS IS WHERE WE ONLY WENT EXPLORING
AND THIS IS WHERE WE NEVER GOT LOST
[Chorus]
And IF I WAS STILL A GIRL (If I was still a girl)
I'D MAKE YOU GET ON YOUR KNEES AND WORK
(Get on your knees and work)
IF I WAS STILL A BIRD (if I was still a bird)
I'D MAKE YOU SHOOT ME DOWN FROM THE SKY, HAVEN'T YOU HEARD?
(Haven't you heard)[x4]
I'M ALMOST GONE
[Verse 2]
AND I'M BLINDED BY
BY OUR STORIES LIKE I'M BLINDED BY DAYLIGHT
AND I NUMBER THE PAGES
I MAKE UP WORDS WHERE OUR LANGUAGES FAIL ME
AND I LET IN THE WATER WHEN THE RIVERS COME TO VISIT
I LET IN THE STORM IF THE FIRE'S STRONG ENOUGH, LISTEN
I LET IN THE PAST WE PAINTED IN A VIVID TRUTH
I WANT US TO BECOME LEGENDS AMONG FISHES AND WOLVES
[Chorus]
