The Mermaid Song Lyrics by F8L

The Shadowless Masquerade

2024

[Introduction Jingle]
This is just the story of the boy who used to dream
About a mermaid in the sea whose eyes were green
Then one day he couldn't find her in his head
So he kept looking in the shadows
Wondering where she could be
And all the pills & potions that he took to
Calm down his emotions gave him nightmares
He would wake up with a scream
He couldn't feel nothing no more so he gave up
And drove up to the river
And went right in the watеrs of the deep
[Verse 1]
Maybe the good days arе coming
Maybe they came and went & it was nothing
Fuck it, I'm a puppet in a cage that I built
What if I was a real boy, would I have free will
Or would I perish with nothing to cherish
And nobody in the passenger
My future holds no revelation
It's time to close the Book of Adam
[Pre-Chorus]
One day you might just have it all & think you're in control
You will lose yourself in nights of mayhem & think you have a soul
But it won't even matter by the time cause I'll be gone
And all your fantasies will take you down with every song
You'll be all alone
[Chorus]
There's something in the water
There's something in the water
Oh no oh no oh no no no
[Verse 2]
"Let go, my dear Pinocchio"
Whispered the Holy Ghost
"The shadows love you, you're one of them
The mermaids will sing requiems"
Hesitation, I don't know why
Liberation, I don't know how
Your future holds no revelation
It's time to close the Book of Adam
[Pre-Chorus]
One day you might just have it all & think you're in control
You will lose yourself in nights of mayhem & think you have a soul
But it won't even matter by the time cause I'll be gone
And all your fantasies will take you down with every song
You'll be all alone
[Chorus]
There's something in the water
There's something in the water
Oh no oh no oh no no
Oh yeah
[Bridge]
Crash crash crash Pinocchio
Crash crash crash Pinocchio
Cra-
1, 2, 3, go
[Pre-Chorus]
One day you might just have it all & think you're in control
You will lose yourself in nights of mayhem & think you have a soul
But it won't even matter by the time cause I'll be gone
And all your fantasies will take you down with every song
You'll be all alone
[Chorus]
There's something in the water
There's something in the water
Oh no oh no oh no no
Oh yeah
