The Lake
Billy Shaughnessy
It's been so long since we've spoke
I hear you're doing just fine
There's been no looking back
I haven't crossed your mind
You haven't thought twice
Bliss took over chagrin
The smiles and the tears
The embrace of the whirlwind
And it's in your hands
Love me or kill me, your choice
I trust you to tell me
Visions of colour
Setting fire to the lake
The smoke in your glasses
But the memory won't go away
The eyes of madness open up
You had enough
But I never saw you
Clawing at the skylight
The unfamiliar city
Loneliness in the twilight
