Tank Tour

by Kayla Green   Jan 22, 2021


Hi MTV welcome to my crib
There’s my water filtration system
There’s my snowy river gravel
Yeah it’s a big place it’s like 50 gallons
You know I used to live in the ocean
It was cute but I needed a change
That’s how I got to this tank
Do I miss the ocean?
Um sometimes
I use to go to school
All my friends would gather and we’d swim together through the vast ocean
So many things to see so many places to go and people to met
And now I’m alone in this glass box
Don’t get me wrong it’s a nice box
But I miss the ocean
And my friends
I hate being alone
But I’m glad you’re here for my tank tour
You make my tank a little less lonely
I want to tell you a secret,
You can keep it right?
Edit this out of the episode or whatever
But sometimes I wish I could go back
I wish I could leave this tank and go back
Back to school
Back to my friends
Back to the ocean
But I can’t
I mean not yet
It’s almost been a year though
And while at first being alone in this tank was nice
Now I’ve counted piece of gravel
There are five thousand three hundred and forty eight
I feel like I’m swimming in circles
I’m swimming in circles
And I wish I wasn’t in this tank alone
I mean it’s a nice tank and I love all fifty of my gallons
But the isolation makes even this creation look not as good
My home now feels more like a prison
Keeping from the ocean
I just want to go back to the ocean again
And see all my friends
Woah sorry that got a little too deep
Can I start over
Thanks
Okay umm
Hey MTV welcome to my crib
