Chandelier Lake

There's a yellow tree that no one sees

where the water meets the land

The grass grows tall and the shadows fall

the blades cast a ghostly dance

The banks are stained with blood and rain

where the water meets the land

A secret there they'll never share, a code of silence

And you will never see what's been hiding

where the water meets the land

until a careful wind begins to lift

each grain of dust and sand.

Chandelier Lake is a mysterious place

and the ghost of a woman who sleeps beneath the waves.

Chandelier Lake is a mysterious place

and she's the only one who knows its name.

A little fox gone wandering

where the water meets the land

Tired, lost, and hungry,

she sees diamonds against the plants

so she sat down by what she's found

where the water meets the land

and there exposed was clothes and bones

and a ring on a lifeless hand

Then the trees and the wind they hold their breath

all feigning ignorance

And no one will ever remember it

because they are made to forget

Chandelier Lake is a mysterious place

and the ghost of a woman who sleeps beneath its waves

Chandelier Lake is a mysterious place

and she's the only one who knows her grave
