Rising through the darkest pool
of turquoise swirling slow
she's as black as light is bright
and eyes of violet glow
Octopus girl sings a song of
sadness that is sweet
floating cutting through the water
she does not have feet
Black mermaid how do you breathe?
how do you sing so sweet?
I know that you're a myth
my love you're dying in my sleep
There's a force you know is bad
it takes you to the light
and a lifetime swallows you
you die to see the sky
