Ariel

Braid

assuming everything

ariel dances in my room

i clutch a red balloon

and hope i don't get taken to

vacant rooms and tunes



assuming everything

ariel dances in my room

at night her eyes are blue

but will i ever want to see them

bleed them dry to cry

i would die



cause i can't help it if your soul is

shallow in the tides



assuming everything

ariel strikes a pretty pose

i'm taking off my clothes

and everybody knows what up

with my baby snows



assuming everything

ariel shakes her silly hair

i'll come before you there

and welcome to a summer slumber

under sheets that tear

and eyes that tear



cause i can't help it if the songs

get hard for you to hear



am i among the heirs of this ariel?



cause i can't help it if my heart gets

hard for you to hold

once... twice... sold
