The Serpent and the Black Lake Lyrics

A vast dark expanse of cold silent waves
Stretches between us, bleak and miserable
It mocks me, it taunts me
Reminding me of my failure

Away you stand, far from me
Alone, on a barren mount, fearful and majestic
Your head white as the snow
Which rests on the grass

Dark crevasses carved deep
Run cold with icy tears
Fallen from Heaven

When will we be one?
You stay silent, yet beckon to me
Unable to resist I follow,
Leaving me behind
The waters rise cold
And attempt to drown me
But I care not because
Further I wade into the gloom

I await too late,
A serpent black and terrifying
Swallows me in his fierce jaws
Of eternal torture and endless suffering
[As we both sink in screaming waters
