Drifting I awaken undersea
Basslet and idol surrounding me
Columns of coral as far as the eye can see
And a radiant mermaid dressed all in green
Waxing melodic she beckons me
Diamond tiara and golden rings
Dancing and flourishing as the wind through the trees
With her sapphire iris dismantling me
Men in arms and marching drummers adorn her grand parade
In honor of her royal family's name
A palace set in crystal coral, aglow with silver flame
A sanctuary lost beneath the waves
Meet the crown of sunken towns of rock
Fairy tales and sailor fables come to me in dream
And I hear her softly sing
"In Continia, you don't have to be anyone or anything at all
You need only be one of the millions who make the ocean their home"
Dazed and drunken that I'd consider a mermaid princess' rule
But I'm 500 feet under the water and all my dreams have come true.
Once as a man and yet never free
Fighting for victories in between
Disordered and fragmented as the rocks on the beach
From the unending quarrel of shore and sea
Yet suddenly I find myself revived in a new embrace
Cast aside from the world outside as a hopeless case
To live out my days with the mythical divers of Ys
Enraptured by sirens who promise an unbroken peace
Peace
Roam about the castle grounds until you feel at home
Forever on you're no longer alone
The golden rays of sun touch down for miles across the sea
A realm of which I'm soon to be the queen
Meet the crown of sunken towns of rock
Fairy tales and sailor fables come to me in dream
And I hear her softly sing
"In Continia, you don't have to be anyone or anything at all
You need only be one of the millions who make the ocean their home"
Dazed and drunken that I'd consider a mermaid princess' rule
But I'm 500 feet under the water and all my dreams have come true
