The Lake
She always does me right
Does my body damage
but you'll hear no complaints tonight
And I know I don't need another hymn
telling me to drink wine when I know it's time to swim
So get in, cause I'll never do you wrong
I'll never shake your spell unless you want me to
I'll make sure I shake it well
I will meet you at the bottom of the lake
I will meet you on the other side
I will meet you at the bottom of the lake
I will meet you on the other side
Row baby bro row baby bro
Row baby row
A table set for three
Everyone is talking so no one is listening
But I've got a table just for two
With an audience of one I'll do what you tell me to do
Don't get up, cause I'll never do you wrong
I'll put you on a shelf
I'll put a cross 'round you and worship you like hell
I will meet you at the bottom of the lake
I will meet you on the other side
I will meet you at the bottom of the lake
I will meet you on the other side
Row baby bro row baby bro
Row baby row bro row
I awake and I'm on the bank alone
except for two drag marks made from stones
Oh god my silly dizzy head, how did I get here?
I try to stand, "good luck" my body said
And then another voice spoke and echoed it
"How do you propose to move
when you've got cement blocks for shoes?"
I said, "I'll just stand up and walk away."
But we both know it doesn't end that way,
but you can always give it a good go
The voice folds his and cracks a smile
I take two steps but feels like a mile
Who's kidding who? Why do I bother?
Take my hand, lead me to water
Lights out
Not prison not hotel
There ain't no wishes in my well
I pray that I will never be a man of god
Cause I met one once tried to understand,
but the only words that he could land were
"Take the river by the hand, and It will lead you to the lake."
Does my body damage

And I know I don't need another hymn

I'll make sure I shake it well
I will meet you at the bottom of the lake
I will meet you on the other side
I will meet you at the bottom of the lake

Row baby bro row baby bro
