The Goldfish Song Lyrics

I feel defeated again
I'm always losing to myself
I tried to build a better me
Shacked a castle and it fell down

I had the right intentions
Sometimes my hope envelopes me
And I can't learn the lesson
Not to send a goldfish to the sea

[Chorus:]
This matter is mine
Don't worry, I'm fine
This matter is mine
This matter is mine
Don't worry, I'm fine
This matter is mine

I know what you've been thinking
It's too soon to empty my cocoon
This butterfly's not ready
But, wouldn't she know better than you

[Chorus]

I'm not gonna give it up [x4]

This matter is mine
(I'm not gonna give it up)
Don't worry, I'm fine
This matter is mine
(I'm not gonna give it up)
[x2]

[Chorus]
