The Lake

I can feel the very seconds in which my heart is breaking. And yet my chest feels hollow, Caved in. Filled with the lake crafted by your agony. I’ve waded in these waters too long. Won’t you hold me? I reach for the reflection staring back I see you beside me looking in, too. And at this angle your gaze turns to moonlight. My fingers miss their run across your breadth; And my feet wish to drown in your depths. Curled around my ankles, pulls me deeper. I feel the tangled grasp of loneliness. It becomes my only friend. Could you love me? I reach for the reflection staring back Can you hear me? Can you feel me? I see you beside me looking in, too. And at this angle your gaze turns to moonlight. Can you see me? I’m Icarus for the moon in your eyes. Devour me slowly with your light. Once more Once more I’ve waded in your waters for too long. Suffocating. My hands find you in the dark. Do you feel me? Can you see me? I’m Icarus for the moon in your eyes. Devour me slowly with your light. Once more Once more I’ve waded in your waters for too long. Suffocating. My hands find you in the dark. Do you feel me? [instrumental] [fade out]
