Marissa Nadler (born April 5, 1981) is an American dream-folk , indie rock musician, and fine artist based in Boston. She grew up in a small town in Massachusetts. She studied painting at Rhode Island School of Design but song-writing became her favored artistic outlet. While exploring old artistic techniques such as woodcarving and encaustic painting, she also began to hone her songwriting craft. She is a self taught guitarist, who as a teenager learned to play in a style similar to Travis picking, playing a steady bass pattern with the thumb and filling out syncopated rhythms with the fingers. She is also self taught as a singer. Wikipedia

Silvia, Silvia, Silvia, I met you in the belly of a whale Silvia, Silvia, Silvia Oh where did you fail
Time passes slowly in the daylight But I do not want to die I met you in the belly of a wicked rhyme And I read all your letters I could find
And the water is your friend The water is your friend And down and down and down you go Gonna buy you a red dress, And put feathers in your hair And resurrect the finer things I lost when you disappeared
Breaking on the daylight They put flowers round your grave And I sang a silly song for you Hey hey hey hey hey Silvia, Silvia
Silvia, Silvia, Silvia I met you in the belly of a whale Silvia, Silvia, Silvia, Oh where did you fail
And the water is your friend The water is your friend And down and down and down you go Gonna buy you a red dress And put feathers in your hair And resurrect the finer things I lost when you disappeared
Breaking on the daylight They put flowers round your grave And I sang a silly song for you Hey hey hey hey hey Silvia, Silvia
