Typhoon - The Lake Lyrics
I know this day in the summertimeMy uncle's lake on the fourth of JulyI saw the cabin, my sister triedTo call like a loon with her hands kept tightUp against her mouthAs the fireflies became visible in the failing summer lightA sparkler in my handI went after them as they went out into the nightI cornered them to a quiet placeWhere the grass grew tall as it met the lakeIt was a different bug must have bit my legThough I never saw himBack at home I cry in my roomMy closest friend, the one that I confided toI wanted her but she wanted youI was sick in bed I could barely moveAnd then as my body turned against itselfI prayed for death that I come back to be anyone elseBe anyone elseBe anyone elseAs the sickness formed within my cellsYou never love me like the way you love anyone elseYou dig a hole, dig it deep enoughThe truth buries itself, it buries itselfAnd I, I just shoveled myOwn familyOh, for loveOh, for loveI was ashamed of my sister becauseShe lied to me when I wasn't good enoughSorry, SorryYou were the only thing I should have ever lovedSorry, Sorry
