The Lake Lyrics by Capture

Lost Control

2016

Hey! Hey!
Tie me to the stake let the depths take me from this place
Hey! Hey!
I can't stand another minute when you've pushed me to the limit

Ankle deep the surface beneath was
Breaking away like the times you've stolen from me
I was drowning in still waters
Despite what everyone told us
I'd rather be dead, I'd rather be dead
Than spend another second with you

How do you sleep at night
Knowing you're living a lie

Hey! Hey!
Throw me in the pit, let the snakes tear me bit by bit
Hey! Hey!
You deserve the pain I've seen so show me how do you pray
Show me how do you pray

Ankle deep the surface beneath was
Breaking away like the times you've stolen from me
I was drowning in still waters
Despite what everyone told us
I'd rather be dead, I'd rather be dead
Than spend another second with you

You crawl your way under the skin
You prey on the innocent
No matter what I'll never let you in
You are a fucking parasite

Tie me to the stake let the depths take me from this place
Throw me in the pit, let the snakes tear me bit by bit

You crawl your way under the skin
You prey on the innocent

Ankle deep the surface beneath
Was breaking away like the times you've stolen from me
I was drowning in still waters
Despite what everyone told us
I'd rather be dead, I'd rather be dead
Than spend another second with you
