About This Track

'2010' by Squid is an indie rock track from the album 'Bright Green Field', released in 2021. The lyrics place “All these eyes” across offices and palaces, observing a world of stacked up files and tables where a feast is measured in lines and flavourless anticipation. It is a clinical, slightly sinister portrait of systems where people gather, look, and wait for what is coming, with the imagery of bureaucracy doing the emotional heavy lifting.

"2010" is a track by Squid, from the album Bright Green Field, released 5th May 2021. The track is 4:28 long. It's filed under Indie Rock. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 14 articles about Squid.

Lyrics

2010

(All these eyes) In offices
(All these eyes) In palaces
(All in piles) When looking out
(All in piles) From around the table
(Losing sense) Meet for the feast
(Near stacked up files) Where there's no taste
(All in lines) But just a flavor
(All in lines) Of things to come
(All these eyes) You'll come inside
(All these eyes) You'll be a friend
(And at night) We'll satisfy
(And at night) Your every need
(All in piles) Your expectation
(All in piles) Your every need
(All in piles) Your expectation
(Locked in lines) And there's a kink
(Fours or fives) It's in the blanket
(All in lines) And on the spikes
(All in lines) But they weren't there
(All these eyes) The week before
(All these eyes) And they will shine
(All in piles) See your reflection
(Upside down) I'm upside down
(Upside down) You're upside down
(All in piles) The wrong way 'round
(All in piles) And inside out
(Both so weak) I'm upside down
(Week by week) You're upside down
(All in lines) I'm upside down
(All in lines) And inside out
(All in lines) I'm upside down
(All in lines) I'm upside down
(All in lines) I'm upside down
You're upside down
I'm upside down
You're upside down
I'm upside down
You're wrong way 'round
Fifteen-year programme
Fifteen-year programme
Around offices
And palaces
Changing face
