I'm swimming in a stream of consciousness rare is the occasion I get to rest I'm swimming sometimes drowning inside my head I need rescue help me please I beg I was running wild with the wind once against the current I flew through the glass window I came suddenly and fell into this room I'm a fish not that big not a whale or a shark more like a salmon in the dark at the bottom of the ocean where I'm not supposed to be I'm out of breath. I'm a fish in your aquarium the one you never get tired of looking at you watch me do the same thing all day how I get bored and lonely inside my rock you watch me grow until I stop I can't learn anything new so I hide and play by myself Once you dropped me on the floor desperately grabbed me and took me home I slept like it was my last day on earth 'cause you never know what's going on in the universe's mind I thought I should've died before but when you're being killed the instinct is to fight I wouldn't mind stop breathing though I wouldn't mind not having feelings Fishes have feelings too I'm afraid of the dark too Here in your aquarium I get to see the most wonderful things! how your cat almost swallows me how your fingers get nervous when you're excited and I can see everything 'cause no one sees me Maybe you should take my eyes 'cause I can see through yours.

Stream of consciousness
I'm swimming in a stream of consciousness rare is the occasion I get to rest I'm swimming sometimes drowning inside my head I need rescue help me please I beg I was running wild with the wind once against the current I flew through the glass window I came suddenly and fell into this room I'm a fish not that big not a whale or a shark more like a salmon in the dark at the bottom of the ocean where I'm not supposed to be I'm out of breath. I'm a fish in your aquarium the one you never get tired of looking at you watch me do the same thing all day how I get bored and lonely inside my rock you watch me grow until I stop I can't learn anything new so I hide and play by myself Once you dropped me on the floor desperately grabbed me and took me home I slept like it was my last day on earth 'cause you never know what's going on in the universe's mind I thought I should've died before but when you're being killed the instinct is to fight I wouldn't mind stop breathing though I wouldn't mind not having feelings Fishes have feelings too I'm afraid of the dark too Here in your aquarium I get to see the most wonderful things! how your cat almost swallows me how your fingers get nervous when you're excited and I can see everything 'cause no one sees me Maybe you should take my eyes 'cause I can see through yours.
