In the skeletal remains of a pool long since drained Filled with rain, reclaimed by nature Through the dark, I wade, as if in its glory days Knowing that I'll make myself sick from the water Knowing all my tears and rage could load a revolver
I used to think I'd die right here In your arms, or deep under That I'd be just like Ophelia In a coronet of weeds, in the water
I used to think you must be the water I drink Holding me down in these waters, down beneath Singing to the sound of my screaming But now, I see, now, I see
In the dark, I wait, right here where I once sunbathed With all of my dreams unfit for day With all of my tears and all my rage
I used to think you must be the water I drink Holding me down in these waters, down beneath Singing to the sound of my screaming I used to think of the day it'd be Just you and me like the Wild West Both of us shooting 'til one of us was dead (Was dead)
