The Lake And The River Lyrics

Everything you'd live and die for

Reasons leading you through here

Perished matriarchal bonds

Failing innocence of love

When the world beckons your approach

It swallows you whole

You'll believe what you're led to believe

In the hands of ghosts we're never responsible

Wait to see what you're meant to see

The veil lifts when you expose your soul

Prayed I would leave this place someday

Joined to alarm from long ago now unconcerned

Euphorically floating upon wax wings where is the sun?

I still see her face; her beauty her grace

Transfixed like a light in front of me

It follows my soul

And swallows me whole

You'll believe what you're led to believe

In the hands of ghosts we're never responsible

Wait to see what you're meant to see

The veil lifts when you expose your soul

Left, right, left, right...

His branches reached so far before

His leaves were bold extremities with great control

Wasted along; he died alone

You'll believe what you're led to believe

In the hands of ghosts we're never responsible

Wait to see what you're meant to see

The veil lifts when you expose your soul

But the right hand hates the left and the sea's upset with the sky

So we press on in spite of the spite

Happiness is a knife when the worlds on its side and your minds on fire

Trying to find the trouble with the trouble I've found

Begging my god to make the wheels go round

Eat so much but I never get full

Earth opened up and swallowed us whole
