Lights on the Lake (Horror, Part III) Songtext
von Swallow the Sun

Father, why did you drown me here?
In these waters
And father, why did you leave me here?
In deep waters

Father, its getting darker here
As the years pass
And father, I′m the whispers on the lake
Lights on water

My child, I carry the burden of sorrow with
Your soul
The songs you gently sing to me
But the love was never stronger than the grief of your unholy price
I curse you forever in your watery grave
You passenger of evil
For taking her away from me
The blood of your arrival
Cutting knives and shadows, a ceremony of pain


Through living flesh to the dead, both in my bloody hands
But only one cried
In blazing fury I carried you through the
Woods
While the trees tried to stop me in horror.
Your cry echoed on the lake as I laid you down on the boat

The tears made circles on the still water
The circles made the waves
The waves raised the tide and made and made the rain fall
Raised the lights on the lake
The tears made circles on the still water
The circles made the waves
The waves raised the tide and made
Rain fall
Raised the lights on the lake

Through the mist, further on the lake, in the eyes of still water
Into the deepest pit you silently
Fell
Slowly in the throat of dark water


The tears made circles on the still water
The circles made the waves
The waves raised the tide and made the
Rain fall
Raised the lights on the lake
The tears made circles on the still water
The circles made the waves
The waves raised the tide and made
Rain fall
Raised the lights on the lake
