Shark [Out Of A Black Cloud Came A Bird, 2010, Sleep Like Wolves, UK] (Alternative Rock, Folk)
A shark came by today I kept that shark at bay Optic nerve gone astray Leaving us gyroscopic In a confused confounding sea I gripped his arm and he held onto me I carry with me your care Bejwelled 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 Mermaid lost her comb Gagging on sea foam A thatch of debris Fish hooks 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
