Life Deep in the Lake

Remember me – in this fallen night
Remember all my promises
And deep in this lake
You’re swimming down
Down to deceit

This is myself – this is your fate
Can you see me, miserable and divine?

I cry among these waters – and remember me, I was fragile
You break the surface with no regret – your dignity at stake
Your joy for the past – your hope has gone in pieces, deceived
By all these ghosts – the life at the end of the lake
Drowning forever

My wildside – and my pride
And you really counted on all I said
Holy water
For your damnation

This is myself – this is your fate
Can you see me, miserable and divine?

I cry among these waters – and remember me, I was fragile
You break the surface with no regret – your dignity at stake
Your joy for the past – your hope has gone in pieces, deceived
By all these ghosts – the life at the end of the lake
Drowning forever

Remain sane, cry
And remain brave

What flesh cut – it hurt itself
This purity obscures the judgement
I’m well aware of how it tastes
‘Cause shadows can belong to grace

This goes

I cry among these waters – and remember me, I was fragile
You break the surface with no regret – your dignity at stake
Your joy for the past – your hope has gone in pieces, deceived
By all these ghosts – the life at the end of the lake
Drowning forever
