Bathtub Mermaid - Mili

Lyrics by：momocashew

Composed by：Mili

Rise and fall

Silver moon tide erased my foot prints

Then I picked up broken scales

Stuck them to my tail

Ah

If love truly makes you blind

Then I guess

There is no need

There is no need to see

I'll trade my eyes

So you can see for me

Lu la la

Lu la li la

Stay with me

You will never be sad

I

I will embrace

Embrace your bubbles your fluids

And keep you warm

Then

I will squeeze out

Squeeze out your germs your spore your viruses

I

I will embrace

Embrace your membranes your bones

And keep you cool

Then

I will squeeze out

Squeeze out your evil your grim and your woe

Transform myself

Once and for all

Sink into the tub

Reborn

Reform

Twist my legs to one and mind to none

Tell me tell me

What do you see

In the mirror that's covered in chalky steam

Touch me touch me

Kiss me to sleep

Cut me open and give me gills

So I can breathe

With tweezers and nippers

Trim off my fins

And forever I'll be yours

I won't fight or make you cry

Whatever you need

Whenever you need

I'll be by your side

And then I gave you my eyes

To see all the colours

And then I gave you my ears

To hear all the sirens

And then I gave you my heart

To fill in the emptiness in your chest

And then I gave you my brain

So that you can learn to love

Ah

La-la-la la-la-la la-la-la-la

This heart beating la-la-la la-la-la-la

Look for her books now christen the art

Tell me tell me

What do you see

In the water that's clinging onto my skin

Cut me cut me

Please make it deep

If I'm covered in scars

Will you look at me

Kiss me kiss me

Don't leave me be

I'm a bathtub mermaid

I cannot swim but only sing

Just pull the plug

Flush down all our memories

Flush down flush down

Into the sea
