The Lake Lyrics by Ghost Mountain

October Country

2025

[Intro]
\nAll these things I had to know
\nAutumn streams, been lying low again
\nRivers I bled
\nLeave it to the night, what's better unsaid
\nAll these things I had to know
\nAutumn streams, been lying low again (Haaaauuggh)
\nRivers I bled
\nLeave it to the night, what's better unsaid
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nHit the light as I wake up
\nHit the light as my blade struck to no use
\nBut they said it's not you again
\nStay at the foot of the bed
\nAt the final destination, taken all the way
\nIgnoring what you saw was your worst mistake
\nSaw you back at the lake now, saw you back at the lake
\n
\n[Verse]
\nTook, took time out the window, to the side
\nYou'll know why, why it hurts so right
\nI'm fearing it's as bad as they say it is
\nBeams in the sky, felt 'em closing in
\nPiercing cries, wind ripping with the tide
\nAll that's mine, just a sinking supply
\nCoffin on the shores, shroud of cellophane
\nCo-Cold light morning, meet me by the lake
\n
\n[Refrain]
\nAll these things I had to know (Yeah)
\nAutumn streams, been lying low again
\nRivers, rivers I've bled
\nLeave it to the night, what's better unsaid
\n
\n[Bridge]
\n4 a.m., out of breath
\nPegasuses flying over me
\nSo I put the rest under darkened depths
\nAs Perseus stood drawn in the east
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nHit the light as I wake up
\nHit the light as my blade struck to no use
\nBut they said it's not you again
\nStay at the foot of the bed
\nAt the final destination, taken all the way
\nIgnoring what you saw was your worst mistake
\nSaw you back at the lake\n\n
