Ruby Throat - Shark lyrics

A shark came by today I kept that shark at bay Optic nerve gone astray Leaving us gyroscopic In a confused, compelling sea I gripped his arm and he held onto me I carry with me your care Bej**elled broken comb Caught in mermaid tangled hair In darkest days Your care outweighs I carry with me your care Waves breaking over our bed Head weighs heavy as lead Shrieking bird above my head In a darkened sea our island Is submerged in the tide race I gripped his arm and he held my face I carry with me your care Bej**elled broken comb Caught in mermaid tangled hair In darkest days Your care outweighs I carry with me your care Mermaid lost her comb Gagging on sea foam A thatch of debris Fish hooks are served up for my tea A shadow creeps on darkened sea And still he keeps his grip on me On me, on me, on me I carry with me your care Bej**elled broken comb Lost in mermaid tangled hair In darkest days Your care outweighs I carry with me your care I carry with me your care I carry with me your care I carry with me your care
