I'm Gonna Buy An Octopus!

lyrics
JACOB&PATRICK: Watch me step onto this street/Horns will blare as fenders greet/Headlights flash from my new friends/as they all witness the end/The rain outside reflects my eyes/as pedestrians fly/No chance now for a glass slipper/Cobblestone walk; Jack the Ripper.
P: Where there was once brightness in your eyes now I find only dark. We've reached the end of the tunnel and found that there's no light.
J&P: I've gone off the deep end now. My dreams are all I remember/I see white silhouettes with faces shaped like those that I once knew. Angels reach for me but I've already lost control/Just a shooting star across an asphalt sky. Too late to make a wish/Too late to take it back.
J: Drifting gently in a box. Close out the world, it's not good enough. Forget your place. don't press the brakes. A dozen lost lives and it's all your fault.
P: Darling, darling, could this be witchcraft. Witness this ambulance, these lights flash and fade. Like you.
J: Your life is fleeting, but you still live like shit. You spread filth because of it. Please leave me out of it.
J&P: Break away, the ponies have escaped. I will never leave you as long as you stay this good to me.
P: This stampede of flame and water collides so gracefully/with our/bodies/How ever will we make it through this venture/Time to go.
J: Can you feel it now? What you have been waiting for. Can you feel it now? Is it what you've dreamed of?
P: Where there was once brightness in your eyes now I find only dark. We've reached the end of the tunnel and found that there's no light.
J&P: I've gone off the deep end now. My dreams are all I remember/I see white silhouettes with faces shaped like those that I once knew. Angels reach for me but I've already lost control/Just a shooting star across an asphalt sky. Too late to make a wish/Too late to take it back.
J: Drifting gently in a box. Close out the world, it's not good enough. Forget your place. don't press the brakes. A dozen lost lives and it's all your fault.
P: Darling, darling, could this be witchcraft. Witness this ambulance, these lights flash and fade. Like you.
J: Your life is fleeting, but you still live like shit. You spread filth because of it. Please leave me out of it.
J&P: Break away, the ponies have escaped. I will never leave you as long as you stay this good to me.
P: This stampede of flame and water collides so gracefully/with our/bodies/How ever will we make it through this venture/Time to go.
J: Can you feel it now? What you have been waiting for. Can you feel it now? Is it what you've dreamed of?

Orange Mathematics

Quite possibly the most full-on album I've ever listened to. Intense, and then some. 'Digital Tarpit' could describe both the track and the whole album: high-pitched guitar squeals that make your fillings itch coupled with merciless, suffocating heaviness. The Avenell-esque vocals top it off perfectly. Brilliant - punishing, but brilliant.
