John Craigie
Street Mermaid
[Verse 1]
I'm whispering cause I'm wasted
It's so real, I can taste it
I still think that I can save us
For whatever that means
[Verse 2]
I've stumbled past a thousand flames
I ain't a player cause this ain't no game
You were born in a tidal wave
And thrown out in the sea
[Chorus]
But your heaven is so far away
The gutters flow with champagne
I watch you crawl away
My street mermaid
[Verse 3]
Puddles come down from above
You mix them up into your blood
You're praying for these streets to flood
So you can swim on back to sea
[Verse 4]
And I know
The sun baked your scales away
You're far beyond walking, babe
You'll float or you'll fall
[Chorus]
But your heaven is so far away
Thе gutters flow with champagne
I watch you crawl away
My street mermaid
[Chorus]
But your hеaven is so far away
The gutters flow with champagne
I watch you crawl away
My street mermaid
I watch you crawl away
My street mermaid
