Watery Grave

 
I know a secret
I know where your body lies
'Neath the cold dark waters
Only light are the fireflies

A lonely forgotten life
Not unlink mine
Who's soul brings waves crashing down
Swept away in the tide

You reside here, year after year
Season change but you remain
Snow falls and so does the rain
But you cannot escape this lake

He came one evening
And you could not be saved
Was no time for weeping
For you met a watery grave

I know a secret
I know where your body lies
'Neath the cold dark waters
Where nobody passes by

No sunlight could reach you
All your sorrow and your pain
So deep into that gloom
And so you shall remain
