Siren Song Serenade
For Those Who Mistake Familiarity for Love
VERSE 1
Her lips taste like tears
And pain you’ll never forget
Always bringing back the years
Of wasted words and regret
Although her mind changes on a dime
She swore it’d be different this time
CHORUS
The definition of insanity
A fool’s errand, a calamity
A skewed version of reality
A mirage, a masquerade
It’s got me questioning humanity
It’s not the way love’s supposed to be
Headed straight for catastrophe
The moment she started to play
That siren song serenade
VERSE 2
Her smile spreads like lies
Whispered so sweetly at night
Deceit is easy on the eyes
When there’s an absence of light
Clearly a present danger
She might as well be a stranger
BRIDGE
The waters wave warnings, “Heed the sound.”
From voices of those who loved and drowned
TAG
I’m begging you, please, walk away
That siren song serenade
