Half Woman Half Seahorse-Hanna Marsh

I＇m taking frightened steps in this weird looking land Where all the people act just like some kind of insects And I know I should let them wake me from my dream But I fear they might chew me with their thoughts that look like jaws They buzz like busy bees and scamper like ants But still they＇re so stunning that they make me fall down on my knees Thrilling is the way they act, but is it killing too? I＇m too afraid to try and pull myself into their ranks They might tickle my heart And then hurt me Make my world even more hazy... I was born from the fog sailing on the sea Should I now learn to dance around like a little bee? Oh, how I wish that I could fly just like the little birds But would that set my soul free from all its fears and all its dreams? Sometimes when I wish and start to rise up to the air I soon find myself crawling in the ground like a snake They might tickle my skin Make me crazy Make my world even more hazy... But what if the thing they could offer me Was a golden ring? Could I get married and still feel free? Could I walk on the earth and still live in the sea? ＇Cause I am half a woman, half a seahorse And I am half a bird and half a snake It＇s fascinating, all the songs the sea gave to me But lonely are the melodies and misty are the tones And on the shore my people stand Waiting with the ring Turning into butterflies and flying with their wings Could I get married and still feel free? Could I walk on the earth and still live in the sea? ＇Cause I am half a woman, half a seahorse And I am half a bird and half a snake
