Ruby Throat — Shark

Текст песни: Shark

A shark came by today
I kept that shark at bay
Optic nerve gone astray
Leaving us gyroscopic
In a confused, compelling sea
I gripped his arm and he held onto me

I carry with me your care
Bejewelled broken comb
Caught in mermaid tangled hair
In darkest days
Your care outweighs
I carry with me your care

Waves breaking over our bed
Head weighs heavy as lead
Shrieking bird above my head
In a darkened sea our island
Is submerged in the tide race
I gripped his arm and he held my face

I carry with me your care
Bejewelled broken comb
Caught in mermaid tangled hair
In darkest days
Your care outweighs
I carry with me your care
Mermaid lost her comb
Gagging on sea foam
A thatch of debris
Fish hooks are served up for my tea
A shadow creeps on darkened sea
And still he keeps his grip on me
On me, on me, on me

I carry with me your care
Bejewelled broken comb
Lost in mermaid tangled hair
In darkest days
Your care outweighs
I carry with me your care
I carry with me your care
I carry with me your care
I carry with me your care
