lakeside view
mercurial in your gaze
a dream with tattered wings
the feathers my nighttime blanket
at least more use than my days
and i'm trying to swim
no i won't reach your foreign shores
only the moon in this midnight water with me
2 pinpoints of failing light within
your invitation a fool's goodbye
lined with a coffin's gold
the undertow for all to see
i'll end a victim of my pride
if i thought i could
i would reach for you
cry for your help
but i know you never would
cold waves cover me
and i'm drowning now
forever in and out of reach
of your comfortable lakeside view
