You've caught me, trapped me.
You've hemmed me in, enclosed by your vessel.
I cannot move, I cannot breathe.
Suffocated by your words, tangled in your eyes.
I am as a fish, trapped in your bottle.
You shake me, you break me.
I can never leave your gaze.
You're a bully to me, but I broke free.
Dare to trap me and I'll break you.
Because I cannot relate to you.
Your bottle cannot hold me.
Your words will never drown me.
The tables have turned.
Mate, you're my fish in a bottle.
