The Third Of Lakes

To be so weightless
To keep you company
To be so tasteless
This world's not for me

Held my head up high despite your problems
Said it's okay, we'll hide in our asylums
Why do we keep stumbling?

To be so painless
To keep your eyes alight
To be a mistress
I could but won't show light

I thought the moment was oh so done
Casper said: "The third of lakes, you're my best"
Why should we keep it going?

To be so stranded
To keep you at bay
To come out empty handed
Can't say more

Underused like the rest
And pretty destroyed inside
Unscathed like the rest
You'll have me by your side
