"Naiad Girl" lyrics

Kids love monsters, women love their dads
Maybe it's not good but is it really so bad?
If you didn't love then you wouldn't even care
Other people judge it and you know it isn't fair

Psycho-social dark matter moving things about
Girls do what they have to do to turn the world around
Perfectly constructed functional machines
Doing what they do, producing what we need

The fly might love the spider when they struggle in the web
Colonizers make such precious babies overseas
Happy bloodshot couples paying off each other's debt
Everybody finds a way to get what they need

Naiad girl, dive back into my world
Back into my world

Christians pray for sinners, sinners love the Lord
Soldiers love their country when it sends them off to war

Psycho-social dark matter, moving things about
Girls do whatever it takes to get away, to get out

I miss you when you're around
I miss you when you're in the room

Naiad girl, dive back into my world
I miss you
I miss you when you're around
Where did the other you go?
I love every version of you
Poor bastard, he doesn't even know

If he could see you swimming, he'd never pull you ashore
I miss you when you're around me
I can't miss you anymore
If he saw you swimming, he wouldn't take you away
I don't know what to do
I don't know what I'm supposed to say

Naiad girl, dive back into my world

Fisherman hook our cheeks, they love us so much
They wanna touch our scales
We chase them up and grow some legs to open
We give away our tails

(We give away our tails) (I can't miss you anymore)
Mermaid girl, dive back into my world
(Or back her, he doesn't even—) I miss you
(If he saw you swimming he wouldn't take you away)
Selkie girl, dive back into my world
(I miss you when you're around) I miss you
(I don't know what the fuck to sa—)
(We give away our tails) (I can't miss you anymore)
Mermaid girl, dive back into my world
(Or back her, he doesn't eve—) I miss you
(If he saw you swimming he wouldn't take you away)
Selkie girl, dive back into my world
(I miss you when you're around me) I miss you
(I don't know what to say)

Mermaid girl, dive back into my world
(He doesn't even know)
I miss you (He doesn't even know)
(He doesn't even know)
Selkie girl, dive back into my world
I miss you (He doesn't even—)
