The Lake

At midnight by the fireplace

I fell in love with her portrait

Her eyes revealed

She knew I'd take the bait

It's said she rests for many years

Moonlight will make her appear

In the lake that she had filled with her own tears

I gathered all of the stories we have been told

I never questioned she was really out there...

Obsessed by the secret that she may hold

I will find her anywhere...

And there she lies with open eyes

Starring into the night

In the light of the midnight sky

I have found one good reason to die

Take me down to the quiet place

In the lake where she sleeps in grace

It's said she rests for many years

I can see her shade appear

In the lake that she had filled with strays and peers

Sinking deeper

Oh, how the cold fills me out

As the starlight blurs over me

Going deeper

Emerging into the black

For the first time I feel free

And there she lies with open eyes

Starring into the night

In the light of the midnight sky

I have found one good reason to die

Take me down to the quiet place

In the lake where she sleeps in grace

In the light of the midnight sky

I have found one good reason to die

Take me down to the quiet place

In the lake where she sleeps in grace

In the lake where she sleeps in grace
