I still remember the words you said They were hard enough to leave a mark And now they echo inside my head As I spiral down into the dark
I windmill upside down Knowing you'll come at me again And I feel your shadow Pass above me
Octopus Some kind of octopus Tearing my shell apart Letting the sea get in You make my insides Outside
I don't think I ever saw you blink You were so controlled and no one knew And by the time we all stopped to think We were already too close to you
Now you keep coming by Tellin' me it's not what I think But I know a murder When I see one
Octopus Some kind of octopus Tearing my shell apart Letting the sea get in You make my insides Outside
Far above me I can see the world (see the world) Receding slowly out of you The sinking feeling that my worst mistake (worst mistake) Was all the time I spent with you
Said you're sorry, you said you'd try But you never did, I guess we're done The bits and pieces of me float by And I die in front of everyone
And you're already gone Halfway to wherever you sleep And you make me wish I Never met you
Octopus Some kind of octopus Tearing my shell apart Letting the sea get in You make my insides Outside
