POLLUTING

i can see that far muffled light
ripple with my swimming tail
it lights up as i get closer
but the dim screen never leaves

waiting for it to end
waiting for it to end

i dont kno how it all started
why i jumped into this dark puddle of water
grew out a tail like yours
and never able to walk again

it doesnt seem like it
how they think all we do is play
it doesnt feel like it
how this water is supposed to be love
thats just not it
i dont like being grabbed by my tail
my achilles heel

will i ever learn to walk again
may it be as hard as learning without feet
its much harder because this time
i chose to walk alone and you wont miss me

will you miss me like you said you will
will you find another mermaid
will you breathe in and out on your empty bed
in that pool where im no longer bound

baby i ask you cus its almost over
i see it end and you see it too
in that cold skin of yours is there a warm heart
if u want to keep me then why dont you fight

dont let me go i know your hands are slippery
dont forget my body is slippery too
dont forget we live in this soapy water
and i'm already at the surface

darling darling 
i wrote a book with my tears
its name is underseas
