The Squid
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
it's friday night and i'm tired of searching for this life
the week's been cruel to me, i just want to feel alright
all over town the word's been going around
and where i want to be is wherever you'll be found
now it takes up nearly all of my time
and i need, i need some way
i need some way to get you off my mind
sometimes when you get close to me
it brings me close to heaven, but i can't get in
no no no, and the more you shy away from me
to search for something better, it hurts me so
but i don't know cause i'm the squid
now all this time i wait for you to realize
i'll treat you lovingly, so open up your eyes
and once again i say i need you my friend
touch your lips to me and i'll be your cigarette
you know i love you so
but i don't know and i won't know
excactly where we're going to go
