The Lake

[Verse: Xhef]
I was wondering where the feelings gone
House of cards floating on the water
Never tested so the paper stone
Till a wind made it shake and falter
Had to break the image on my own
Couldn't stand it when you'd leave it lone
Couldn't stand up when you left me lone
Where to lean when my senses faltered
I was telling me there's no more home
Open hearted in a closed coffin
A walk past the end of the road
Had a nonbeliever kneeling at the alter
Begging cosmic for a point of view
What was true should I even bother
A house of cards could've never grown
If it couldn't even take a little water
I was feeling like a stone
Sank faster and cast farther
Than I've ever felt known
Had to learn to breathe underwater
Had to feel your feelings on my own
Had to deal with the root causes
Went through more than I could ever show
But my eyes bag all the weight regardless
Nobody had a way to know
You have to read it to become an author
Couldn't see my future self
In the mirror lookin at my father
In the mirror looking at the scars
In the bathroom almost took the offer
Almost stumbled on the edge with
No bow before a final fade to darkness

[Outro: Sample]
"All we do, 'cause you love me, then you hate me
That's a game for fools
Break up to make up, that's all we do"
