Forced deep below,
In a place so unseen.
A place thats so quiet,
That it must be a dream.

The bubbles float up,
As I'm pushed further down.
My fear comes to life,
I'm not ready to drown.

My lungs start to burn,
And I struggle for air.
Just a little bit further,
It doesn't seem fair.

Everythings cold.
And my sights gone all blurry.
I've gone so limp.
I hope they would hurry.

I lay in the water,
Sinking down below.
Everythings alright now.
I've lost to my foe.

They can't find my body,
When I'm not there.
It doesn't matter though,
They don't seem to care.

I'll lure the unkind,
To the depths of the sea.
Give them teh fate,
That happended to me.

Once I am done here,
And their life starts to fade.
I'll leave them in the water.
It's the life of a mermaid.
okay, well i think u can guess what this one is about, especially as the title pretty much tells it ^^

but u might not know completely wht i mean with this so i jut want to tell u guys.

this is about a girl....whatever age (preferably teens to early 20s) and someone kills her in the ocean, drowns her.
its about wht happens when shes dying and what shes thinking. when she finally dies, she disappears but her body changes bc she wants revenge (i suppose) and so she lives in the sea that killed her and kills the unkind (mainly men) by dragging them down to the depths of the sea and watches them drown. then she leaves them to die
and she will do this for the rest of her life until she gets killed herself (again)

and thus
this is the life of the mermaid....
