Tangled Tides

(ahhhh) I'm just a silent swimmer

in the cold and deep

He is the golden heir,

a promise he couldn't keep

But when our gazes locked across the shoreline sand

He held my water world inside his velvet hand

But he flew with a beautiful bird in the air

A nest made of diamonds,

a family heir

And she carries his child in her golden cage

While I wait below

at the edge of the stage (ooh,

the edge of the stage)

Then the egg cracked open

and a sweet song began

He brought me upstairs as the live-in nanny hand

Under the roof of the high high tree

We kept our secret where she couldn't see

Midnight halls,

soft padded feet

Where the ocean water

and the high wind meet

Locked behind doors, we stole every breath

Living a lie that would scare us to death (scare us to

death)

I flew down to the nursery,

I saw what you hid My wings are broken by the things

that you did I gave you my sky,

I gave you my nest Now I sing this warning from my

bleeding chest
