The lonely fish café Lyrics by Small Dad

sike nah,

2022

Does it feel a little weird to see the gremlin in the mirror?
He's got big green eyes and a heart full of fear
But you've declared the line, the creatures in the mind
The things that happen there don't happen outside
So why is it you look as though you've somehow changed?
Like something's climbed to surface and you'll never be the same?
Some things [?] that's only how they seemed
Strange when I see you now, you look just like me
There's a big dark room at the bottom of a lake
And my friends down there call it Lonely Fish Café
We're writing colors on the walls 'cause we know that it's a long way out
We're writing colors on the walls 'cause we know that it's a long way out
Enchanted cups of wine
Voices from the pines
I looked for magic objects to clarify the skies
And then I found the one thing I'd wanted that whole time-
A mirror that would snatch my shape and freeze it by design
Days on end I'd watch the figure through the glass-
How true, how real, how full of weight and mass
The closer that I looked, the paler he became
The phony face shrunken guy I tried to give my name
There's a big dark room at the bottom of a lake
And my friends down there call it Lonely Fish Café
We're writing colors on the walls 'cause we know that it's a long way out
We're writing colors on the walls 'cause we know that it's a long way out
We're writing colors on the walls 'cause we know that it's a long way out (it's a long way out)
We're writing colors on the walls 'cause we know that it's a long way out (it's a long way out)
We're writing colors on the walls 'cause we know that it's a long way out (it's a long way out)
We're writing colors on the walls 'cause we know that it's a long way- (it's a long way out)
We're writing colors on the walls 'cause we know that it's a long way out (it's a long way out)
We're writing colors on the walls 'cause we know that it's a long way out (it's a long way out)
