Damages
I can't wait for the day when I won't have to pay for these damages
Hostages
We're hostages
Because we're hand-fed the path that's up ahead we are hostages
Sometimes it's harder to be human than to be destructive
And sometimes it's easier to walk away than to be seductive
Lately things haven't been the same
I keep my love in my pocket, my heart in my chest
I'm miles ahead
But you're walking east when I'm walking west
Savages
Savages
Without the light from the sun look at what we've become--we are savages
Sometimes it's harder to be human than to be destructive
And sometimes it's easier to walk away than to be seductive
Lately things haven't been the same
I keep my love in my pocket, my heart in my chest
I'm miles ahead
But you're walking east when I'm walking west
Damages
I can't wait for the day when I won't have to pay for these damages
Hostages
We're hostages
Because we're hand-fed the path that's up ahead we are hostages
Sometimes it's harder to be human than to be destructive
And sometimes it's easier to walk away than to be seductive
Lately things haven't been the same
I keep my love in my pocket, my heart in my chest
I'm miles ahead
But you're walking east when I'm walking west
Savages
Savages
Without the light from the sun look at what we've become--we are savages
Sometimes it's harder to be human than to be destructive
And sometimes it's easier to walk away than to be seductive
Lately things haven't been the same
I keep my love in my pocket, my heart in my chest
I'm miles ahead
But you're walking east when I'm walking west

about
Teenage Octopus Ann Arbor, Michigan
After lead guitarist Bobby Lewis formed Teenage Octopus in 2009, the band wasted no time hitting the Ann Arbor music scene with their fresh, unique sound. Influenced by alternative-rock bands such as Radiohead, Wilco and Spoon as well as jam-band pioneers Phish, the four-piece from University of Michigan's goal is to intertwine smart melodies and explorative jams. ... more
