Mermaiding

from Dark Beach EP by Dark Beach

/

lyrics

Can’t be heard and can’t be seen
She’s miracle, she’s mystery
The men with nets would break her neck
And slit her throat to bring her back
She’s prey
Mermaid

Sailors think they see her swim
Her tail flapping back at them
Her tresses messed with green seaweed
She’ll never tread close enough to see
She’s waves
Mermaid

Dive down to the bottom
Down where the lady rests her head
In a bed of reeds and coral reef
An endangered species
A woman in water deep and blue
Afraid of the sun and the sharks and me and you

In my dreams I take her hand
She sucks my body from the sand
We plunge into the cold and deep
The world grows dark and blue and green
We play
Mermaids
