small time fish (big time pond) Lyrics

Lay awake at night

Embrace the neon lights

Waiting for a sign

It's never coming if you

Stay inside this shrine

You built to something where you

Pray to the divine

But still as empty as the

Eighth bottle of wine

The other seven couldn't

Look you in the eye

I'm caught up reeling

Pull the line

Just to catch the feeling

Fall off the ceiling

Pull the line just to

Pull a lie just for fun

Kinda funny how it helps

With the healing

Spare the only one

Keeping watch at your doorstep

Stare into the sun

The curtains lift for a moment

(Parentheses big time pond)

(Small time fish big time pond)

(or trout – yeah I also like small time fish big time pond)

(but in parentheses yeah… but call the song small time fish)

Fill my head with the plot, conspire

Fill my head with the thoughts for hire

Thoughts for hire

I'm caught up reeling

Pull the line

Just to catch the feeling

Fall off the ceiling

Kinda funny how it helps

With the healing

Caught up reeling

Pull the line

Just to catch the feeling

Fall off the ceiling

Pull the line just to

Pull a lie just for fun
