Is there a sign on the back of my head
That says desensitized?
Well, I'm sorry I said anything
You sang a song and then
Learned to sing
And said that you missed
The songs you sang before
You learned anything
In a fishbowl on the beach,
I know the salty water stings,
But it's not hard to see
From a bowl the world's
Out of reach
I see my face in the lake
At the end of the pier
All the fish seem to wonder
What I'm doing here
When I hold my head under
and hear them all scoff
I just open up my mouth
and let my mind jump off
It says there's a sign
At the end of the swamp
That says destruct
It's f**ed it's done
It's just mud
No such dumb luck
Construct new huts
Blind new kinds of ducks
The make them occupy new titles
Like on a royal aisle
Where they print up a phone book
As think as a bible
You were batized in a river
I was thrown off a bridge
Then I landed on a crab
You slept with seahorses
I started having seizures
You started having kids
You found your inner self
I found my inner fish
And my other car is a boat
It has a boat name
I thought we both came
But no
No no no such conch,
No pontoon,
No one is listening to you
The sun does wonders to your brain
The way it burns right through
I'm swimming in a trough
I'm sure you written me off by now
Just when I think that all is lost
I see you stepping in the water
To me every edge of the lake
Is a fifty foot cliff
And once you are swimming with me
There's no way out of this
So let's just turn back into amphibians
Let's just tread until our legs give in
And let's start over
Start over
Start over
Start over
