Laru Larrieux - Gills and Tails lyrics

[Verse 1] I looked at my reflection in the water Thought, “What an unlikely pair” Closed my eyes, held my breath, plummeted down, down, down And anchored myself there [Pre-Chorus] Can't tell how long I've been In the company of gills and tails I think I feel my skin Growing scales [Chorus] Can I come up for air? Can I come up, can I come up? Can I come up for air? Can I come up, can I come up? Can I come up for air? Can I come up, can I come up? Can I come up for air? Can I come up, can I come up? [Verse 2] I'm getting eaten up down here I'm just not built like them The big fish have a monopoly The little fish get buried in the sand [Pre-Chorus] This here world I'm in s**s your life out, leaves you comatose Take back your salt and fins Send me a lifeboat [Chorus] [Bridge] I look up at longing at the surface Hypnotized by the way the sunlight seems to ride each ripple And they do a dance Every ray becomes a beckoning hand I miss the sweet taste of oxygen I mistook this for the promised land [Chorus]
