roaming this pestilence, comfort know me not. starvation is my friend, my family is rot. i will forever wander this abode, where warmth is fleeting. feathers from above fall down unto me, an eternal reminder of whom we’ve lost. so i look to the lake, its echoey chambers grasp me underfoot. her eyes gaze into mine. i take a breath. sing a song to the lake, join her in the melody! a tune so secret, yet everyone knows her words. a tune so precious, yet they all trample it in vain. sing a song to the lake, turn not a deaf ear! she awaits you, darling, come to her once more. my bones are aching, my heart is failing, yet i still yearn for something more. my body not knows quit, i will keep going. the memories flood my mind, it crashes with in me! i lay down with the ghosts beside me. i hide underneath their wings. an eternal reminder of whom we’ve lost, yet, like the sun, a sign. a sign to keep going, to keep going once more. so i shall close my eyes, and take a breath. sing a song to the lake, won’t you sing? won’t you sing it? they’re all turned to you, waiting, waiting for that miserable hymn! sing a song to the lake, she’s waiting for you, darling! remind her of what we stole from her, and of what she took from /us./
