the lake

I took off both my feet and jumped in the lake
You had said I could follow you
Then the ground opened up and it swallowed me
In this light I can float right through
I took off both my arms and jumped into yours
I took off both my arms and jumped into yours

Dug the dirt from my face and I rose from the ground
Tell me when, show me how
I'll leave everyone
Do you know who you are
How I'd kill for you?
You are slowly becoming everything I am

(I took off both my feet and jumped in the lake)
(I took off both my feet and jumped in the lake)
(I took off-)

I've seen your God a thousand times, not once has he forgiven me
This on and on has gone so long because that's all this could ever be
I've talked to God a thousand times, not once has he been listening
So I wrote this song to keep you closer
And beg you to slowly kill me

(The cat must have got my tongue)
