Mermaids

I never want to be the one to leave you high and dry
And yet you wonder if the water flows right
I fell feet first
We dive so deep
Sinking, submerge
Descend

All the waves taking shape across the sound
All the waves taking shape across the white sound
You can’t make those mistakes
No second chances

We sink to the bottom of the ocean, swallowed by the tide
We tried so hard to see the surface all night
Islands appear
In the distance
Rising, emerge
Ascend

All the waves taking shape across the sound
All the waves taking shape across the white sound
You can’t make those mistakes
No second chances
