"A Drowning Fish"

I'll probably suffocate someday


No love, no dreams, there's nothing left since I can't see the light

I'll forget how to breathe when I get tired of swimming
A drowning fish

A blind mole that's lost the light

What does a flightless bird sing about?

The sun that's gone down will
Probably burn me again tomorrow

That day, the words that left my mouth

I don't think any of it was a lie

Yet a second later, yet a second later
I was thinking how painful it was for us to be together

Even having the best of intentions at heart seems crazy

I don't have any motives or reasons to deceive you

Even though I was in danger of losing you
I tried to make light of things without thinking

I've already grown tired of it all

You murmured a single word

Our past was tinted with lies
Scattered and turned white

How long has the fish's eyes been cloudy?

Repelled even by the flow of this town

I try to joke about it but you probably won't laugh
The boy from that day's grown up

Though now I start to think

I just about died that day

My memories are a burden
Reality turned into a blade towards me

Is missing you a display of weakness?

But I'm incapable of doing anything but cling to you
Even if I want to die, I won't end up dead

Will you laugh at how pathetic I am?

I'll probably suffocate someday

No love, no dreams, there's nothing left since I can't see the light

I'll forget how to breathe when I get tired of swimming
A drowning fish
