And what if sometimes i was a mermaid? and i could splash off into the sunset holding every drop of water in my frail hands?
maybe that would cure my silence
and my beauty might be revealed
and my love might come out from
UNDER MY SKIN
UNDER MY WORLD
UNDER MY SKY
but don't look up because the sky is falling
MY SKY IS FALLING
and
all these years that I'VE BEEN SILENT i was just hoping that winter would come
and it would rain mittens and cloaks
and the chill couldn't freeze my ocean, (all the tiny drops amidst my frail hands)
you tell me to stand up, but baby, my fin is in the way,
and you tell me to love me as much as you do ,but baby, my sky is falling and i don't always want you near
and my heart is pounding out of solid fear
I HATE THE SNOW WHY DID YOU BRING THE WINTER?
i wish i was a mermaid with no worries except the ocean
and no silence
just pride
be proud.
I WISH YOU WERE PROUD OF ME
and i wish that you could swim off with me and regret the winter and its stupid white horses and mittens and cloaks.
i tell you to swim with me and you say your legs are in the way, but baby,
so are mine.
