Lyrics
It’s been years since I first lost my way in the fog.
It lingers in my mind, condensating into the night; breaking the surface of the tarn.
Dawn is crawling towards me, spreading its deep blue reflection across the water.
A breeze carries a vague scent of blossom and I remember why I’m here…
I’ve been told not to listen to the voices in the water,
but I can never ignore their presence or their promises.
I watch the sky through the liquid mirror; each ripple reflects something that I’ve lost.
The twilight weighs down on me with the collected weight of all my sleepless nights.
The burden of summer sadness leaves longing for the fog in my mind to thicken,
and I remember why I’m here…
With heavy feet I edge further out on the pier, losing my sight in the liquid depth of the sky.
Sinking, I can hear their voices deep within my mind, or is it in the distance?
That shrill laughter, entangled in the weeds…
Further down the dark somehow seems less dense, but draining beyond imagination,
and as my eyes roll back I am welcomed into the Nenuphar Necropolis...
