The Lake of The Dead Lyrics

The lake of the dead was the perfect temperature

When something's outside we just watch as it burns

It sounds a bit mad but it's understandable

It's easy to watch when it's not your, not your turn

I dreamt there was a lake where the people would go

When the time comes for them everyone else would know

The lake knew the names of the ones that had gone

One by one and the names of the people that would come

The lake of the dead was the perfect temperature

When something's outside we just watch as it burns

It sounds a bit mad but it's understandable

It's easy to watch when it's not your, not your turn

I dreamt there was a lake where the people would go

When the time comes for them everyone else would know

One day I was walking, everyone was looking my way

I thought "is this one my day?"

The lake of the dead was the perfect temperature

When something's outside we just watch as it burns

It sounds a bit mad but it's understandable

It's easy to watch when it's not your turn

But it was my turn

And my mom was ok with me

Going away

And my sisters said

"Goodbye, may we meet again"

And my papa had a smile

Looked at me in the eye

And I started to cry

"Are you just gonna let me die?"

I wasn't ready

And they let me go

I wasn't ready

But it was my turn

I wasn't ready

But the world was so far

It looked calm and steady as I

Saw the white light I was

Born

Already

The lake of the dead was the perfect temperature

When something's outside we just watch as it burns

It sounds a bit mad but it's understandable

It's easy to watch when it's not your turn

The lake of the dead was the perfect temperature

When something's outside we just watch as it burns

It sounds a bit mad but it's understandable

It's easy to watch when it's not your, not your turn

But it was my turn
