Devil's Lake Songtext
von Aaron Schroeder

Wake up, tell me how to get to sleep
Tell me why the willow weeps
Does she understand something I just can′t?
You've been dancing ′round the devil's lake
If you wait too long the ice will break
And you will fall into the cold

Come down, I can't raise my head that high
I can′t open my eyes that wide
Every time I try to sing these lullabies
You are dancing on the devil′s lake
If you dance too long the ice will break
And you will tumble to the ground


Uh-huh, oh no
They don't wanna let you go
Uh-huh, oh no
They don′t wanna let you
You go
You go

I can see the sunset through your window
Broken glass and freedom songs confuse you
To the bridges we've built and we never crossed
The roads that we paved with debt and loss
To a house that becomes a home for the lost at sea
I will die a thousand deaths to leave you
You will sing a thousand songs they′d see through
To the flames in the sky and the holes in the ground
To the oceans so wide, to the islands you found
To a house that becomes a home for the found

Wake up, tell me how to get to sleep
Tell me why the willow weeps
