Fish Out of Water

Keeping me hooked like a fish out of water. On invisible line, i cant see. You keep pulling harder. When you first baited me in, giving me what i wanted. Just to toy with my heart. You threw me back into the water. Reeling me in closer, Almost so i could touch. Just to hear those horrible words You arent good enough. Back to where it started. Where i first learned to swim. Lead me to another boat With better fisherman. No need for apologies. Dont even bother. My life is served at its best Like a fish out of water.
