Lyrics The Serpent and the Black Lake - Mael Mórdha

The Serpent and the Black Lake

A vast dark expanse
Of cold silent wave
Stretches between us
Bleak and miserable
-It mocks Me
-It taunts Me
Reminding Me of My failure
Away you stand
Far from Me
Alone, on a barren mount
Fearful and majestic
Your head white
As the snow which rests on the grass
Dark crevasses carved deep
Run cold with icy tears
Fallen from Heaven
When will we be one?
You stay silent yet beacon to me
Unable to resist I follow
Leaving Me behind
The waters rise cold
And attempt to drown Me
But I care not
Further I wade into the gloom
I awake too late
A serpent black and terrifying
Swallows me in His fierce jaws
As we both sink in screaming waters
Of eternal torture
And endless suffering
