Fish Out of Water

I can be the fish out of water
You can be the bird without wings
You can watch me gasping for oxygen
I can cry each time you sing

You can be the bird underwater
I can be the fish without fins
I can watch you gasping for oxygen
You can see me trying to swim

I'm not all here, you're not all there
I might be indifferent but you don't care
And I might promise and you might swear
An oath to the stranger a pledge for a care

You can be the awkward silence
I'm the elephant in the room
No one wants to speak about anything
Happy just to sit in the gloom

You can shoot the fish in the barrel
I can kill two birds with my stone
When they come round fishing for compliments
I'll tell them to leave you alone

I'm not all here, you're not all there
I might be indifferent but you don't care
And I might promise and you might swear
An oath to the stranger a pledge for a care
