I am storm-tossed upon
Whitecaps buffeting me
Tossing naked upon the waves,
Crying out wordlessly, like a babe.

And all around me is despair
Im frightened and I cant
Hold on much longer in this
Bloody damn darkness tearing
At my naked cold flesh like
Cobras fangs

Wish it were a dream
Wish it were a nightmare
Wish I could wake
Wish I could let go let the
Sea sweep me away let me
Drown in the salt-ice depths
Of the roiling black churned waters

Wake me wake me up when the
dream has passed and im safe
daddy daddy im scared dont let
me im not a mermaid i could
never swim and im afraid
so afraid of the dark
