Fish - Tempus Canvas

The Riptide

4. Fish - by: Paint The Cave

Swimming in a fish bowl

Towers and tourists

Low below the moon

You know I'm tired

Hide away from the brightness

Gotta close my eyes

Tangled in the reef

Deep in the ocean

Low below the wake

You know I'm dreaming

I really need to wake up

Gotta get to work

Carried down the riptide

Sidewalks and subways

Low below the steel

You know I'm anxious

Make a break for the surface

Gotta catch my breath
