VIOLA & SEBASTIAN:
I THOUGHT I’D LOST YOU
AND I WAS LOST TOO
VIOLA:
SO I WORE YOUR SHOES
AND THEY MADE ME STRONG
BUT NOW THAT YOU’RE FOUND
I THINK I’VE BEEN HERE ALL ALONG BECAUSE
MAYBE THE MAN I TRIED TO BE IS THE GIRL I ALWAYS WAS
SO DISGUISE, YOU WERE THE DEVIL’S BLESSING
YOU TURNED A MIRROR BACK AT ME
AND FOR THE FIRST TIME I THINK I LIKE WHAT I SEE
NOW I CAN PUT YOU BACK ON THE SHELF
AND CHANGE INTO MYSELF

Dave is the master of writing endings that instill an ethereal feeling of hope within the person who experiences it. The Field is a perfect cap to the end of Octet and by itself it fills me with the calm tranquility of acceptance in situations where I feel like everything is wrong, like I'm unworthy of everything I have and happiness itself. It always reminds me to not waste anymore of my weird and precious time, arguing the nonsense of the wheel. playton
