MILK OF THE SIREN - Melanie Martinez

Long afloat on shipless oceans I did all my best to smile 'Til your singing eyes and fingers Drew me loving to your isle And you sang Sail to me, sail to me Let me enfold you Here I am, here I am Waiting to hold you Did I dream, you dreamed about me? Were you here when I was full sail? Now my foolish boat is leaning Broken lovelorn on your rocks For you sing Touch me not, touch me not Come back tomorrow Oh, my heart Oh, my heart shies from the sorrow Well I'm as puzzled as the newborn child I'm as riddled as the tide Should I stand amid the breakers? Or should I lie with death my bride? Hear me sing Swim to me, swim to me Let me enfold you Here I am, here I am Waiting to hold you

Hear my voice beneath the sea Sleeping now so peacefully At the bottom of the sea Sleep for all eternity Sailors live so restlessly Come with me, sleep peacefully Listen to this siren's song Worry not for nothing's wrong Let my voice lead you this way I will not lead you astray Trust me as we reach the side Jumping out where men have died Hear my voice beneath the sea Sleeping now so peacefully At the bottom of the sea Sleep for all eternity Let the ocean fill your lungs Struggle not, soon peace will come Taking in your final breath Sink down to the ocean's depths "I wish I could always be In the ocean's arms, you see" He who'd wanted nothing more Sleeps now at the ocean floor Ocean was your lover's name You had loved her all the same Now you'll always be together Sirens are so very clever Hear my voice beneath the sea Sleeping now so peacefully At the bottom of the sea Sleep for all eternity

In sleep he sang to me In dreams he came That voice which calls to me and speaks my name And do I dream again? For now I find The Phantom of the Opera is there Inside my mind Sing once again with me Our strange duet My power over you grows stronger yet And though you turn from me to glance behind The Phantom of the Opera is there Inside your mind Those who have seen your face Draw back in fear I am the mask you wear It's me they hear My spirit and my your voice in one combined The Phantom of the Opera is there Inside my mind (He's there, the phantom of the opera) (Beware, the phantom of the opera) In all your fantasies, you always knew That man and mystery Were both in you And in this labyrinth Where night is blind The Phantom of the Opera is here Inside my mind Sing, my angel of music He's there, the Phantom of the Opera Sing, sing for me Sing, my angel of music Sing for me

The rusted chains of prison moons are shattered by the sun I walk a road, horizons change, the tournament's begun The purple piper plays his tune, the choir softly sing Three lullabies in an ancient tongue for the court of the crimson king The keeper of the city keys ut shutters on the dreams I wait outside the pilgrim's door with insufficient schemes The black queen chants, the funeral march, the cracked brass bells will ring To summon back the fire witch to the court of the crimson king The gardener plants an evergreen whilst trampling on a flower I chase the wind of a prism ship to taste the sweet and sour The pattern juggler lifts his hand, the orchestra begin As slowly turns the grinding wheel in the court of the crimson king On soft gray mornings widows cry, the wise men share a joke I run to grasp divining signs to satisfy the hoax The yellow jester does not play, but gently pulls the strings And smiles as the puppets dance in the court of the crimson king

When the cold of winter comes Starless night will cover day In the veiling of the sun We will walk in bitter day. But in dreams But in dreams I can hear your name And in dreams And in dreams We will meet again. When the seas and mountains fall And we come, to end of days In the dark I hear a call Calling me there, I will go there And back again.
