The Lake

All these things I had to know
Autumn streams, been lying low
Again
Rivers I bled
Leave it to the night what’s better unsaid

Hit the light as I wake up
Hit the light as my blade struck to no use
But they said it's not you again
Stay at the foot of the bed
At the final destination, taken all the way
Ignoring what you saw was your worst mistake
Saw you back at the lake, saw you back at the lake

Took, took time out the window, to the side
You'll know why, why it hurts so right
I'm fearing it's as bad as they say it is
Beam to the sky, felt them closing in
Piercing cries, wind ripping with the tide
All that's mine, just a sinking supply
Coffin on the shores, shroud of cellophane
Cold light morning, meet me by the lake

All these things I had to know (yeah)
Autumn streams, been lying low again
Rivers, rivers I've bled
Leave it to the night, what's better unsaid

4 AM, out of breath
Pegasus is flying over me
So I put the rest under darkened depths
As Perseus stood drawn in the east

Hit the light as I wake up
Hit the light as my blade struck to no use
But they said it's not you again
Stay at the foot of the bed
At the final destination, taken all the way
Ignoring what you saw was your worst mistake
Saw you back at the lake
