Lyrics

[Verse 1] Mercury, creeping on the sea How she wails, flails her arms and weeps Accumulation of debris Lips apart, flapping as a lark For in the dark there is release [Chorus] Every familiarity scarce as the great white shark [Verse 2] Oh, to build walls with golden gills Spike in hand, high above the sand To kill the sanctuary Every mile that is owned Only stands still by the grace of the stone [Chorus] Every familiarity scares as the great white shark [Verse 3] Look, daughter an owl Listen to her howl I howled when you were born through me And you're alive with a breath you can't see Oh, by the grace of this dream
