Mermaid Songtext
von Grayson Capps

You got the magic of a mermaid
You swam where I drowned
I need you now more than ever
My ship is goin′ down
The devil, he stole my soul
Too much idle time
I'm crawlin′ just like a snake
The devil, he owns my mind
He's drivin' me straight to hell

I was wise when I was with you
I died with you, a million dead
And every time I was born again
But the last time, you took my breath
Left me never to breathe again
Never to breathe again


Give me life, give me hope
Give me strength to hold on
Give me life, give me hope
Give me strength to hold on
I need one more day to rise above this jail
I need one more day to rise above this hell

The walls are wet and cold
Inside this bottomless hole
My fingernails slip on the slime
It′s harder and harder to climb
I′m sinkin' deeper, deeper into hell

Thoughts bleed down my face
My brain wears a thorny crown
Look out, Johnny Ace
The devil′s comin' back to town
He′s gonna give your guns to me
He's gonna give your guns to me
He′s gonna give your guns to me

Give me life, give me hope
Give me strength to hold on
Give me life, give me hope
Give me strength to hold on
I need one more day to rise above this jail
I need one more day to rise above this hell
