Daniel Johnston — Fish

[Verse 1] Try aching every care in the world She's only the most beautiful girl The more I think it, the badder it gets I was swimming along when I was caught in her net [Chorus] She's got me singing with a broken heart I keep on messing with my mind torn apart She's only forgotten we've been left in the dust I guess my art didn't help very much [Verse 2] Then the superlove got me again Got me dreaming I could almost win I stopped to take a look around with a grin So much turmoil in this crazy town [Chorus] She's got me bloodied from hitting the bricks Is this the way the girlies get their kicks? And now I see as if it makes a difference Everyone in love, hating and hurting each other [Verse 3] Always thinking it's near the end And I was hoping she'd be my friend Lost forever, only wishing again Oh, to be alive and free from sin [Chorus] Psycho love in The Twilight Zone Drippy soap opera on the telephone I get so close, but I don't belong Straining to identify with the radio song [Verse 4] Then I see her as if in a dream It's so real, I could almost scream She's doing her ritual, the same for any man Just like a movie, it's so deadpan [Chorus] I'm looking for love in the darkness I haven't a chance at false romance Maybe next time I'll whisper something new I'm so ashamed, so unglued [Verse 5] I've had enough and she'll never know I feel like staying, but my subconscious says, "Go" Shed a tear like blood on the floor It's only love and nothing more [Chorus] She's got me singing with a broken heart I keep on messing with my mind torn apart She's only forgotten we've been left in the dust I guess my art didn't help very much
