[Intro] ...the tide… the tide… the tide is calling… ...the tide is calling…!! the tide is calling me! They tore me apart from sea but I still belong to sea!! ...the tide is calling… the tide is calling me! I might be dead but it ain’t gonna stop me! ...ain’t gonna stop me… [VERSE 1] I lived deep in the waters where the sun was rarely seen, A curious lass with skin so pale, When I was singing half of the under— They all fell under my spell. I lived deep in the waters, yet I always dreamed To leave the deeps and experience a world I’d never seen… Naive and young I swam up high, Finally my eyes were able to see the skies. [PRE-CHORUS] Magical voice, My scaled tail, Hitting the waves… ...I could be happy yet… It ain’t my fairytale… [CHORUS] ...the tide is calling…!! the tide is calling me! They tore me apart from sea but I still belong to sea!! ...the tide is calling… the tide is calling me! I might be dead but it ain’t gonna stop me! ...ain’t gonna stop me… [VERSE 2] A curious me—oh, I couldn’t see The danger that was closing in on me. The fate was cruel, the pirates foul— A ship appeared on the horizon line. The harpoons shot—too late when I thought I’d make it to the shrine… They dragged me aboard, oh my dear lord, Then my gaze turned all black— My body slacked— And I felt I was no longer alive [PRE-CHORUS] Magical voice, My scaled tail, Hitting the waves… ...I could be happy yet… It ain’t my fairytale…!! [deep female growl] [CHORUS] ...the tide is calling…!! the tide is calling me! They tore me apart from sea but I still belong to sea!! ...the tide is calling… the tide is calling me! I might be dead but it ain’t gonna stop me! ...ain’t gonna stop me… [BRIDGE] ...the shiny scale no longer mine… ...they dragged my bones where there was ice… No beating heart, no moving tail— But it’s not the end of my fairytale!! [deep female growl] Cruel was the fate that sealed my grave— But fuck the fate, I’ll retaliate!!! The urge was deep, the urge was true— The deathly gates? I ripped through!!! [CHORUS — FINAL] ...the tide is calling…!! the tide is calling me! They tore me apart from sea but I still belong to sea!! ...the tide is calling… the tide is calling me! I might be dead but I ain’t gonna fail! I will show you my own fairytale…!!! [deep female growl] [Outro]
