Next to my house there is a lake
Where fireflies gather to drink
Sometimes I see some of them sink
And coming back shining brighter
And when twilight rings nightamare bells
Me and my friends stand out our cells
We're getting out of all dead tree
To the worms leaving company
Don't try to
Come too close
Water has put a spell on me
Lake is my only family
Look inside
My marble eyes
Closer to me
I'll dive into
Our swamp is not too small for me and you
Pale brother be a child
Of the dead lake
I'll dive into
Our swamp is not too small for me and you
Could sister be a child
Of the dead lake
Em wollof eciohc thgir eht edam ev'uoy
Infant witch for eternity
Lake is worthy the loneliness
Forever dwelling in darkness
I'll dive into
Our swamp is not too small for me and you
Pale brother be a child
Of the dead lake
I'll dive into
Our swamp is not too small for me and you
Cold sister be a child
Of the dead lake
