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
