Rachel Moon - Goldfish (Demo)

How many times can I learn the same lesson
Before I should go get some medical testing
My mind is a spaghetti strainer
In my left ear and then right out the other
I'm retaining less info that when I was in junior year
But I keep going over it, over and over
Forgetting and relearning slower and slower and slower
'Til it's over
But I've been a goldfish all of my life
Thought I was swimming a straight line
By keeping the glass on one side
I can circle the tank in the blink of an eye
But I'll forget what I just saw
In the same time
Making the same mistakes that I made last year
It's wasting my time but not the pain that I fear
And growing older, but not wiser
How many times can I learn the same lesson
It's my self-respect not my patience I'm testing
With you
But I've been a goldfish all of my life
Thought I was swimming a straight line
By keeping the glass on one side
I can circle the tank in the blink of an eye
But I'll forget what I just saw
In the same time
How many times can I learn the same lesson
Is keeping my heart soft a shield or a weapon now
I heard someone say that ignorance is bliss
And all I ever wanted was just happiness
So I'll be a goldfish for the rest of my life
Don't matter if it's a straight line
Just keep the glass on one side
Watch me circle the tank in the blink of an eye
I can forget what I just saw
In the same time
