Little Mermaids Songtext
von Sicknature

She was the quiet girl in class
With a dark past in her backpack, she felt bad
But trying to understand her was abstract
Flashbacks and tameless shame nearly drowned her slowly
Coldly underneath the waves of pain
Her fantasy, her only oxygen mask
An escape that kept her safe, it was more than a patch
So when her confidence crashed
Her mind crafted dazzling landscapes
Far away from any past happening that ached


Where she′s a princess in a calm kingdom
Where love is all income
Needed, and peace is synchronized with a strong system
Where her walk is witnessed
And people all listen to her wisdom, and her heartbeat
That has a strong rhythm
Only the shoe she wore in her dream seemed to fit
Reality made her sick and when the fever hit
She felt weak and felt that everything was meaningless
And so she was dragged back into the deep abyss

There'll be days, you know
There′ll be days, you know
Where life is no fairy tale
There'll be days, you know
There'll be days, you know
Where life is no fairy tale
But don′t let them drown you
The surface is often closer than you think
No, don′t let them drown you
The surface is often closer than you think

She used to be the prom queen, and it all seems like yesterday
She conceals her age and looks unreal and plastic made
An ocean of makeup covers her age up
But she knows that the door of youth still stays shut
Bad decisions were conjured
She paid heavy costs to look younger
Now they look at her like she is a monster
But her dream world is better and timeless
When she closes her surgery affected eyelids


She sees that she is a princess in an honest kingdom
A place where all the princes
Want her for what she is inside and where nothing withers
Where her shortcomings are gone, where she is young and slimmer
Where she's walking on air and where love is the victor
But in real life, there is no air that her feet can hit
As soon as she opens her eyes, she sees an unappealing witch
Looking for perfection in places where no reason fits
And so she is dragged back into the deep abyss

There′ll be days, you know
There'll be days, you know
Where life is no fairy tale
There′ll be days, you know
There'll be days, you know
Where life is no fairy tale
But don′t let them drown you
The surface is often closer than you think

No, don't let them drown you
The surface is often closer than you think
