John Craigie - Street Mermaid

I’m whispering cause I’m wasted
It’s so real I can taste it
I still think I can save us, for whatever that means
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 of the sea

But your heaven is so far away
The gutters flow with champagne
I watch you crawl away
My street mermaid

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
And I know the sun baked your scales away
You’re far beyond walking babe
You’ll float or you’ll fall

But your heaven is so far away
The gutters flow with champagne
I watch you crawl away
My street mermaid
