Lyrics A Lake - Lawrence Arabia

A Lake

A lake
A still and ageless lake
A dark and depthless lake
You made a splash, it was concentric
As you’d expect it
A lake
A still and ageless lake
A dark and depthless lake
You made a splash
It was concentric as you’d expect it
A field
A yellow painted field
Depicted in a dusty book
The mind was weak, the body willing
That fact was chilling
I never knew me, my dear
Till I met you I thought I was cool
It only took seven years
And then we were truly in love
You led me dumb and blind
Through the obstacle course that I call my mind
And when I reached the end
The certificate — it was you
A fire
A red and raging fire
A sick satanic pyre
We danced around, victorious Vikings
Invoking lightning
A force
An invisible force
The terrifying hordes
They don’t believe that it is sinning when you are winning
I never knew me, my dear
Till I met you I thought I was cool
It only took seven years
And then we were truly in love
You led me dumb and blind
Through the obstacle course that I call my mind
And when I reached the end
The certificate — it was you
