The Octopus

[thetworegs]

We must watch out for the Octopus he's no longer in the deep he's amongst us ....

The Octopus
The reach of the octopus
stretching out amongst the weeds
The tentacles creep close
Sticky with need
No one knows where they are heading anymore
Everyone in need
Today just another day
On the brink of war
On the brink of war

The law makers taste the wine
Drunk on power all the time
The last days burn like Rome
As we watch with nowhere power at all
Relinquished years ago
When the Octopus had us fooled
Behind the show
The beast behind the smokescreen
Ready waiting to pounce
when we're on our knees
The beastie ready to pounce
When we're on our knees
On our knees


Round and round the world goes
As we all sit and weep
As the Octopus begins
to start upon  his feast
Its tentacles in every avenue of life
Sucking on the human need
Keeping control
Keeping control
Keeping control its only need
It's only need

Deliver us into evil
As the Heater skelter burns
No angels here in the under belly
The truth is the first to fall
The truth is the first to fall
Followed by the believer
who learnt to believe in nothing at all
who learnt to believe in nothing at all 
We fall  backwards into the dark
The octopus takes us all
The octopus takes us all

last night, I kid you not I had a dream where I had dove down under water and got into a mess of octopus'.... and I had one that was trying to stick to me like velcro on velcro... I was able to pull the dang thing off but as soon as I let it go it pulled right back toward my belly.. it kind of creeped me out... eventually I got away from it and returned to the surface.  weird because I don't usually have any dreams like that.

Interesting song... dark but so much truth in it as well...
