Lake

And I'm staring through the green

That taints the water's sheen

The silence penetrates my ears

It's like it's too loud to be real

Float down, float down,

A lake that seems too deep to see

Swim down, swim down,

And dig your feet into the mud beneath

And you are following me

Into a forest of green

I see the snakes in the trees

They wonder how I survived

Float down, float down,

A lake that seems too deep to see

Swim down, swim down,

And dig your feet into the mud beneath

The wolves will take you home

Where I am waiting

The birds will call your name

As I remember

How I stared through the green

That tainted the water's sheen

The silence penetrated my ears

Like it's too loud to be real

Author's Note

Hope to write a piano piece to accompany this soon. This was meant to be an alternative/indie song, I was mainly inspired by Bon Iver and their style of music, also Passion Pit.
