Return To The Violence Of The Ocean Floor - Moonface, Spencer Krug

I’ve got a spirit

Made out of sand

Sometimes it slips through my fingers

Back onto the beach

In some kind of lust

To return to the violence of the ocean floor

So I kneel down

And gather it up

Grain by grain

I have to keep it safe

I still have some things to say:

You should have been a writer, you should have played guitar

But those kids keep coming down the fucking hill

You should have been a writer, you should have played guitar

But your face looks like a statue in the dark

Like a candle that is held up to a mirror

Or the terrible glimpse of a shark

Within your idiot heart

I heard you hate it all just based on your principles now

So I kneel down

Down into your burning sand, singing

One, we got the spirit, two, we got the music

Three, we got the past and four, we got the future

And five, we got some kind of lust

To return to the violence of the ocean floor
