She lives under water and rises at night
Her home is a hole that has never seen the daylight
She's making up stories to keep herself entertained
She's the loneliest creature and the worst is that she knows
Every night she's leaving her hole
Rising up to the surface to the sheltering moonlight
Raising her voice singing, raising her voice singing
Raising her voice singing:
I wanna be a home and a shelter
I wanna be a shipwreck in the sea
I wanna be part of the billion
A plankton in the sea
How can she miss something she doesn't even know
Is there a way of knowing that we don't know, that we don't know
Her head's spinning fast as the tide's come and go
She just doesn't know, she just doesn't know
Keeps singing:
I wanna be a home and a shelter
I wanna be a shipwreck in the sea
I wanna be part of the billion
A plankton in the sea
The loneliest creature, the one in the sea
The one amongst millions, too many to see
She is longing for something she doesn't even know
It's a longing so blurry
It draws off her attention yet it remains unclear
It draws off her attention yet it remains unclear
She keeps singing
I wanna be a home and a shelter
I wanna be a shipwreck in the sea
I wanna be part of the billion
A plankton in the sea
