Lake of Melancholy Lyrics


Here I am on the bared stone

The zombie's hand I'm walking through

Drink the blood and tears

The tears sliding on me

I put my face into this fog

Our memories made

'til I get that

Lake of melancholy

Where I cannot take

Lake of melancholy

Where I cannot take

Swimming through

This lake

Made of tears and sorrow and blood

I get your tomb

Where your picture lies

On the bared

Cold stone

I try to imagine how it was

When something lifted

You up

Into the sky

Suddenly all of our dead

Memories

Are born again

They become stones

Stones swamping me

The hope you will come

Is the air I breathe

It's the air I breathe, yeah

It's the air I breathe

But the certainty you won't

Is the ghost I'm afraid of

This certainty

Is the ghost I'm afraid off

Swimming through

This lake

Made of tears and sorrow and blood

I get your tomb

Where your picture lies

On the bared

Cold stone

I try to imagine how it was

When something lifted

You up

Into the sky

Wanted to see you

One last time

Wanted to tell you

"I love you"

But I had no time

Destiny swallowed you

Clouds do darken your way

When somebody dies

Swimming through

This lake

Made of tears and sorrow and blood

I get your tomb

Where your picture lies

On the bared

Cold stone

I try to imagine how it was

When something lifted

You up

Into the sky

I put my face into this fog

Our memories made

'til I get that

Lake of melancholy

Where I cannot take

Lake of melancholy

Where I cannot take
