Over the bridge and down to the lake

I fear the dark and the cold

But I can't stop and I can't break

Into the water I'm pulled

I'm walkin' into the lake of tears

I'm drownin' in all my pain and my fears

I'm sinkin' down

Never to be found

The waves are crashin' over me

And I can't breathe

In the lake of tears

I should have known

I should have stayed

Up on the surface above

But I'm drawn to darkness like a moth to a flame

And this time it may be too much

I'm walkin' into the lake of tears

I'm drownin' in all my pain and my fears

I'm sinkin' down

Never to be found

The waves are crashin' over me

And I can't breathe

In the lake of tears

The silence knows my name

And I answer with surrender

I'm walkin' into the lake of tears

I'm drownin' in all my pain and my fears

I'm sinkin' down

Never to be found

The waves are crashin' over me

And I can't breathe

In the lake of tears
