Mermaid Bone Video (MV)

See here, my lovely
Please, rest assured; you'll rest your head on these lovely shores
And sure enough the sand became your crown
Seagulls and sailors inside your wedding gown

Be the blacksmith of your iron house
Feed your letters to my desperate mouth

Cough up blood, please become by Christ
Take knives to the night and cut me a slice of that light

Be more bludgeoned, beast of cream, you are
Throw your feast up, replace it with tar

Well, cease this seasick, send me back to shore
Deep as deep gets, the ocean is a w-h-o-r-e

See more than your eyes should see
Feel the contour of contorted feet
Place pacemakers underneath the ground
Hear my silence louder than my sound

Well, I had a simple daughter and I threw her away
She was a fruitful fodder and I threw her away

I had a peaceful thought and I threw it away
I had a sinful thought and I sold it to you

For a hell of a deal
