Terrified Lyrics by Louise Page

Salt Mosaic

0

[Verse 1]
She’s made of ocean, or sapphires or maybe sky
All she knows is that she’s terrified
[Refrain]
The ocean roils and speaks to me
It whispers "It’s all just a dream, it’s all just a dream"
[Verse 2]
He’s made of wishes and fears and pride
All he knows is that she’s terrified
He’s seen her inches from the sea tiger’s jaws, his dear-o
And all he wants is to prove that he’s a hero
[Refrain]
The ocean boils and screams at me
It shouts “This is all just a dream, she’s only a dream”
[Verse 3]
They call her mermaid, siren, nymph
In the corners of smilin’ eyes you might catch a glimpse
She’s made of ocean or sapphires or maybe sky
All I know is that she’s terrified
[Verse 4]
Sea-tiger, shark, demon, restless tail flashing
He’s hunger incarnate, and he hasn’t eaten
He sees her dancing before his flat black eyes
He smells her blood and knows she’s terrified
[Refrain]
The ocean boils and screams at me
It shouts "This is all just a dream, she’s only a dream"
[Verse 5]
Just a breath away from the sea-tiger’s teeth
Spiraling in his head like a great deadly reef
We snatch out our sapphire catch of the day
She writhes on the deck like a dried up wedding bouquet
She shrivels to nothing and stinks of decay
The result of our dreams and our fears and our toil?
A tinned sardine leaking Spanish olive oil
[Refrain]
The ocean roils and speaks to me
It whispers "It’s all just a dream, it’s all just a dream"
[Outro]
I whisper back
"Which one was me? Which one was me?"
