(these lyrics are incorrect, Btw. i would correct them, but i lent my copy of the album out to a friend.) Panopticon was my favorite song before the album was released. when i heard them play it live, i got really pumped for the album's release. it kind of connects to the ending of Quasar, too. a Panopticon is a kind of prison, so i think the song is about being trapped, in a way, symbolically. there are alot of terms thrown around the album. one being seasons, like Summer and Winter. i think Summer represents now, and Winter represents the near-future, but kind of a negative outlook on it, being distant and cold. but in a way, kind of desiring it. the Sun, and Light are some more terms thrown around, but that'll come in more later. i think Quasar and Panopticon are kind of the intro to Oceania, and The Celestials is the REAL beginning, and maybe even the climax of the whole album. I LOVE PANOPTICON. the guitar just makes you THINK of the ocean. it's perfect.
