"Goldfish" lyrics

Monochrome
The shade of life
It sure makes you grey
Thinking in black and white

I moved upstate
The colours bloom
And when I come back
Comfort finds familiar doom

You made a lingering stain
Seems I'm only happy when it rains
And nothing seems to change
You're sad that I don't see you
In my colour range

And you want me to stay
But my body's screaming 'leave'
It would've worked before
But you can't make me

I have free will
I'm not your pet
You think you know me
But you haven't met me yet

Goldfish
Empty bowl
It's hard to see bigger things
When this is all you know

So why are you so negative?
What made you this way?
Why don't you dream of better for me?
I'm not yours to break

Why don't you put a smile on my face?

And you want me to stay
But my body's screaming 'leave'
It would've worked before
But you can't make me

I have free will
I'm not your pet
You think you know me
But you haven't met me yet

Sometimes I wish I didn't love you
Is that ungrateful?
You made me hateful
But I'm so glad I get to love you
How complicated
I don't wanna face it

Negativity and spite
I was raised to think I'm right
All the damn time
Let me tell you something
It don't earn you nothing
Thanks for the backbone
That's your way of loving

And you want me to stay
But my body's screaming 'leave'
It would've worked before
But you can't make me

I have free will
I'm not your pet
You think you know me
But you haven't met me yet

No, you haven't met me yet
Oh, woah
