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 that no one knew And by the time we all stopped to think We were already too close to you Now you keep coming by Telling 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
And far above me I can see the world Receding slowly out of view The sinking feeling that my worst mistake Was all the time I spent with you
You said you're sorry you said you'd try But you never did, I guess we're done Now bits of 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
