The Sun 
Has started to go out
Solidifying
Slowly dying

I was disowned
Abused and forgotten
By my father
We were never close
When I was small
So why should I 
Even bother
With trying to hold onto him
Considering what he did

From afar
I see a ripple
Turn to a wave
Out of the water
Comes a mermaid

She was strained
Repeatedly forgotten
By her father
So she had to 
Reveal herself 
O'er 
And o'er
She tried to escape through vices
But then she sought help

Now she's but a ghost
Saying one last goodbye

Sweet dreams
Our Flowering Mermaid Queen

There's no 
Bitterness in
My heart
I have to let Sol go
For my own health
I need to release 
This hate
Release this loneliness
