Trigger warning: sexual assault, abusive relationships, men being evil. Uhhhh, yeah. All that and more.

I've been working on this one for, idk, how many months now? I can't make it perfect. Not even close. This was my best attempt. But idk, I kinda like the jank in this instance.

This one is approved for phone-listening.

Kraken's Lonely Mistress

Oh, I'm the lonely mistressFrom the tavern down the road on the oceanOf the winding and a terrible, great loadOh, I'm the lonely mistressOf the Kraken, down below.

I'm salted on the greatest ireI live to fill his bad desireHeiring him, strong, young siresMake him Father, bear him liarsFor I'm the lonely mistressBut deeper down I'll go

I was drowned in days of youthAnd I was drowned in fireI was drowned in dresses blueI was a witch, a liar

Forget-me-nots and lilies, speak ofFlowers, he loves it soI dare not speak my heart because myDiaries are known

I'm the lonely mistressFrom the tavern down the road on the oceanOf the winding and a terrible, great loadOh, I'm the lonely mistressOf the Kraken, down below.

I'm salted on the greatest ireI live to fill his bad desireHeiring him, strong, young siresMake him Father, bear him liarsFor I'm the lonely mistressBut deeper down I'll go

He says that he had saved meFrom what, I do not knowBut he is strong and I was youngSo humbly I doth goI am the lonely mistressBut open my legs stayThe Kraken is insatiableAnd I, a loving lay

(I'm the lonely mistress)I'm the lonely mistress(I'm the lonely mistress)

I'm the lonely mistressFrom the tavern down the road on the ocean!(I'm the lonely mistress)Of the winding and a terrible, great load!(I'm the lonely mistress)Oh, I'm the lonely mistressOf the Kraken, down below

I must live allegoricalIn metaphor, not proseI cannot speak, my lips are chappedOr shall I get my knuckles wrapped

I am salted on the greatest ireI live to fill his bad desireHeiring him, strong, young siresMake him father, bear him liarsFor I'm the lonely mistressBut deeper down I'll go

(Oh, I'm the lonely mistress)(Oh, I'm the lonely mistress)

Oh, I'm the lonely mistressOh, I'm the lonely mistressOh, I'm the lonely mistressOh, I'm the lonely mistress

In the tavern down the road
