Intergalactic Mermaid

 

I have mermaid eyes
and an intergalactic brain
I live in two different worlds
I am two people
but don't call the doctors just yet
These pills handle just fine
Inside my mind are stars and planets
Behind my eyes are oceans so vast it makes you dizzy
I prefer my hair tangled and my jeans ripped
I can never hold down a friend
I'm too weird
But please, don't give up hope just yet
Just shoot me into your skin
I can be your heroine
We can space travel
Hop from Venus to Mars
Swim with the sharks
Or sleep on the coral
I have mermaid eyes
and an intergalactic brain.
