[Verse]
I was a shimmer in the tide
A secret shadow
I could glide
Through coral mazes
Deep and wide
A hook came dancing
Silver bright
It caught my hunger
Caught my fight
And yanked me out into the light
[Chorus]
Now I’m hooked on glass
Swimming in a square
The world’s a curve
But it’s caged in there
No waves
No salt
Just a hum in the air
Hooked on glass
I’m caught in a stare
[Verse 2]
The gravel’s painted
The plants don’t sway
They glow like ghosts in a neon haze
Time moves backward
Or just decays
A giant face
It blinks at me
Mouths some words I’ll never see
Am I the pet
Or is it me
[Bridge]
I dream of tides that crash and roar
Of hidden caves
A secret shore
But dreams dissolve when I hit the floor
