The Otter's Tale
Once I heard a story 'bout an otter
That swam into the river, in a storm
The otter sank beneath the shallow water
And wasn't found outright until the morn'
I've heard about a place down by the water
Where some will say the otter can be found
He speaks in shallow whispers to the broken
And tells them it's not easier to drown
When the world is falling under
And the stars have gone away
I'll be here, in the shadows
Telling you I'll never break away
They tell me with their eyes they think I'm crazy
That ghosts and fairytales are stuff of myth
I tell them that you're right, it's just a story
But what's a story without life to live
When the world is falling under
And the stars have gone away
I'll be here, in the shadows
Telling you I'll never break away
The winters getting colder every summer
The water's getting deeper, as I stare
He speaks in shallow whispers to the broken
And tells me that alone
I cannot bear
When the world is falling under
And the stars have gone away
I'll be here, in the shadows
Telling you I'll never break away
Ooooo
Ooooo
Ooooo
Ooooo

When the world is falling under
And the stars have gone away
I'll be here, in the shadows
Telling you I'll never break away
Ooooo
Ooooo
Ooooo
