The Mermaid Song Lyrics

This is just the story of the boy who used to dream

About a mermaid in the sea whose eyes were green

Then one day he couldn't find her in his head

So he kept looking in the shadows

Wondering where she could be

And all the pills & potions that he took to

Calm down his emotions gave him nightmares

He would wake up with a scream

He couldn't feel nothing no more so he gave up

And drove up to the river

And went right in the waters of the deep

Maybe the good days are coming

Maybe they came and went & it was nothing

Fuck it, I'm a puppet in a cage that I built

What if I was a real boy, would I have free will

Or would I perish with nothing to cherish

And nobody in the passenger

My future holds no revelation

It's time to close the Book of Adam

One day you might just have it all & think you're in control

You will lose yourself in nights of mayhem & think you have a soul

But it won't even matter by the time cause I'll be gone

And all your fantasies will take you down with every song

You'll be all alone

There's something in the water

There's something in the water

Oh no oh no oh no no no

"Let go, my dear Pinocchio"

Whispered the Holy Ghost

"The shadows love you, you're one of them

The mermaids will sing requiems"

Hesitation, I don't know why

Liberation, I don't know how

Your future holds no revelation

It's time to close the Book of Adam

One day you might just have it all & think you're in control

You will lose yourself in nights of mayhem & think you have a soul

But it won't even matter by the time cause I'll be gone

And all your fantasies will take you down with every song

You'll be all alone

There's something in the water

There's something in the water

Oh no oh no oh no no

Oh yeah

Crash crash crash Pinocchio

Crash crash crash Pinocchio

Cra

1, 2, 3, go

One day you might just have it all & think you're in control

You will lose yourself in nights of mayhem & think you have a soul

But it won't even matter by the time cause I'll be gone

And all your fantasies will take you down with every song

You'll be all alone

There's something in the water

There's something in the water

Oh no oh no oh no no

Oh yeah
