RUSALKI

Tragedy and broken hearts lingering

In the trees

In the fall the leaves fall in the water

Walking on a trail that seems to be getting smaller

Leads you to a oddly familiar tree

Feels safe, but don’t know why

Enveloped in peace that brings a tear to your eye

Oh

Rusalki, Rusalki

So you sit down forgetting why you came

Watching the subtle wave crash into the sand

Water so clear reflections bouncing right off the top

Then you feel it something’s wrong

Getting colder, wind leaves

And starts to stink

Oh Rusalki, Rusalki

Looking over your shoulder

Watching smoke roll over the water

A thin white sheet

The most beautiful women you’ve ever seen

Making your body weak

Laughing and calling your name

Luring you closer to the water

Wants to take you somewhere forever

You know you came here to leave flowers

On an old grave of a lady

Dead from heartbreak and betrayal

Oh

Rusalki, Rusalki

Listen to there songs, there’s always something wrong

Sitting on weird shaped branches

Enticing every male

Oh

Rusalki, Rusalki

Are you here to play

Or here to take my life away

I know your all alone

Beaten and abandoned

I know it was tragic

You felt like there was no other way

So you walked into that marsh

So ever man can walk into your curse

Lead to them usurped

Oh

Rusalki, Rusalki

Your pale skin glowing in the moonlight

So beautiful and hypnotizing

Long black silky hair

Begging me to take the comb

I can’t deny I can’t disobey

I’ll listen to every word

Even if I burn

So let the moon shine bright

Bring back my sight

So I can save my life

I know if I stay

I’ll die tonight

So staying is risky

Oh Rusalki, Rusalki

Oh

Oh

Oooooooh

Rusalki, Rusalki
