lyrics

Thought it’d do me some good,
To take a long walk in the woods,
But when I got there I couldn’t help feeling alienated.
So I went back home,
But i was all but alone, because the pets and everything that I owned all awaited,
And we confessed we both felt depressed and jaded.
I said I feel so domesticated
Like a fish swimming in a bowl,
I wanna see the sea but its out of my control,
Like a dog tied to a tree,
I wanna run free but theres a rope around me,
And like a bird in the cage that sings,
I wanna fly away but they cut my wings,
And like a hamster on a wheel,
Im killing time for the next meal.
I feel so domesticated
Maybe I’ll take my collar down to the convenient store,
Spend a couple of dollars there to remind me what they’re good for,
Go back home and watch the news about the far off war,
And its bored kids like us that enlist to die because they dont know what they’re living for.
I feel so domesticated
I feel so domesticated
