A Trullo is a type of semi-permanent hut with a cone-shaped roof.
I think our protagonist uses a trullo as a metaphor for a mindless head; one that doesn’t think critically or have original thoughts. They yearn for a more permanent structure that is capable of more complex thoughts.
[Verse 1]
I've grown tired of living inside a house that's not a head
Tempted on the porch, walk through the door, that's how it's fed
A bedlike tongue to cradle my bones and hair to catch the rain
I've grown bored of living inside a house without a brain
[Chorus]
And now I'm staring out of a glass eyeball
Staring out of a glass eyeball
Staring out of a glass eyeball
Staring out of a glass eyeball
[Verse 2]
I've grown tired of living inside a house that's not a head
Two glass eyes to wash so it cries the fingerprints from it
I'll build two and one will be blue, the other will be pink
I am done with living inside a house that cannot think
[Chorus]
And now I'm staring out of a glass eyeball
Staring out of a glass eyeball
Staring out of a glass eyeball
Staring out of a glass eyeball
