SIRENS Songtext
von MAYY HEMM

I lit the sky on fire
To burn the water down
Paper boats with a lighter
Melt cotton candy clouds

Insomnia, all nighter
A clock that makes no sound
The sky keeps getting brighter
But you′re nowhere to be found

So I'll swim to the horizon line
Breathe you in deep and drown tonight
I′m in search of paradise
Where the ocean meets the sky


So come down to me
Let our love ring like a thunderstorm
I'm lost at sea
Cold water, but you keep me warm
My day, my dream
I'm sinking in the undertow
So, gravity
Bring me where the heavens meet the sea

I′ll trade my lungs for fish gills
My arms for seagulls′ wings
I'll bathe in oil tank spills
And eat forgotten things

I think my heart′s a windmill
That runs on your breathing
Life is a beast I must kill
And dying makes me king

So I'll swim to the horizon line
Breathe you in deep and drown tonight
I′m in search of paradise
Where the ocean meets the sky


So come down to me
Let our love ring like a thunderstorm
I'm lost at sea
Cold water, but you keep me warm
My day, my dream
I′m sinking in the undertow
So, gravity
Bring me where the heavens...
