it’s strange being on the inside of the
outside, my body is in circles
it’s fine, i see outside the fishbowl
it’s mine, i don’t mind, it’s not like
i can’t see the rest
they’re just like what i see
they’re inside my head
it’s everything to me
we change and things always seem to get
untied, i trip over my feet again
it’s fine, i’ll say something else to them
tonight, i don’t mind, it’s not like
i can walk away
from everything i see
it’s inside my head
it’s everything to me
i can change my thoughts
but i can’t change what they mean
so i pretend that i forgot
and keep staring out blankly
