Fishbowl Lyrics

I'm here today, just like every yesterday
Heavy heat and the sheets stick to my skin
Can't get away from nothingness
I try to get up, but I have to give in to the force
That is keeping me down

I overcome this gravity
I look outside, a cat cries out
Trapped upon a window sill
But its crying's drowned out
By my screaming inside

What will it take?
I wonder what it's like
Exposed outside
Would I be safe?

When will it break?
Try to look out
I see reflection
I just want to break

Sirens moan, they're forever crying
Someone's probably dying
The sound sticks inside my head
Talk to myself, I'm company
But who is to say if nothing if said?

Two windows stare back at me
Three stories high nothing is new
And I may sit but someday I'll stand
I'll muster up the will and fire myself through

What will it take?
I wonder what it's like
Exposed outside
Would I be safe?

When will it break?
Try to look out
I see reflection
I just want to break

What will it take?
I wonder what it's like
Exposed outside
Would I be safe?

When will it break?
Try to look out
I see reflection
I just want to break
