A Lake That Drained Songtext
von Manticora

Another soul departed today
A grieving fact that I have grown used to
Ashes to ashes and dust to what?
A ticket to oblivion when your dear ones follow you

Sickness drained the lake inside me
That I used to shed my tears
Sorrow and sadness in abundance
Left a desert through so many years

Gone forever, all but a memory
A grain of sand in a brief moment in time
The rain is pouring down (saddening me)
As I listen to the sound of the church bell chime

Sickness drained the lake inside me
That I used to shed my tears
Sorrow and sadness in abundance
Left a desert through so many years


What is life but a flash of a switch in the light of eternity
What is life but a flash of a switch in the light of eternity
What is life but a flash of a switch in the light of eternity
What is life but a flash of a switch in the light of eternity

Ahaha, ahaha
Ahaha, ahaha
Ahaha, ahaha
Ahaha, ahaha
Ahaha, ahaha

Another soul departed today
Accompanied by the choir′s song
Another soul departed today
It took a little part of me along

Sickness drained the lake inside me
That I used to shed my tears
Sorrow and sadness in abundance
Left a desert through so many years
