There's something in the water
There's something at the bottom of the lake
There's something waiting in the river
And I just can't seem to get it to go away
I tried every remedy they pushed my way
I tried to ignore it but still it watches me
I can't pretend it's under lock and key
The thing in the water wants to be down here with me
Black as ice and cold as hell
The surface of the water is a sleeper cell
What lies awake no one can tell
The water's in my mind and I can feel a chill
Don't wait for me
Don't wait for me
Don't wait for me
Just leave me buried
In the lonely depths
She waits for you there
Gnawing and scratching at the walls
She calls you
Can't get any rest can't get out of my head
Till the thing in the lake is good and dead
So I'll hold my breath and grit my teeth
And sink to the bottom of the blackened deep
Don't wait for me
Don't wait for me
Don't wait for me
Just leave me buried
Now I'm here and I can finally see
The green abyss she called on me
It waited for me
God beckoned me down
Now I wait
Now I am the deep
