The Short Life of the Small Fish
Story behind the song
Think about those little fish that are food for the big ones. They only have impulses of fear or hunger and that is how they live everyday.
Lyrics
Living in liquid it's not so hard to take a drink
Quietly drifting your mind is unable to think
You cannot perceive of the danger you surly are in
Your lives in the hands of a man and a woman
Who's directions may lead them
So far from the place they begin
Fear and hunger rule your lives
It's an uncertain world through your eyes
You're not sure of your particular demise
Fear and hunger rule your lives
Feeding on findings randomly scattered at the top
Racing to consume a few of the pieces that drop
You are outnumbered and still you maneuver to retrieve
Your size your advantage you slip out the mouth
Of a chomping behemoth's shiny teeth
Fear and hunger rule your lives
It's an uncertain world through your eyes
You're not sure of your particular demise
Fear and hunger rule your lives
