(ahhhh) Deep in the cold
and heavy gray
Where the surface is just a lie
A shape is rising
through the spray
And then fading from the eye
Is it a trick of the silver scale?
Or a shadow in the deep? (ohhh)
Oh,
the monster of the black water lake
Only shows what we want to believe
Leaving nothing but ripples in its wake
To deceive (to
deceive)
A grainy plate,
a blurred outline
Frozen in nineteen-thirty-four
We seek a sign
we cannot find
Staring from the stony shore
Oh, the monster of the black water lake
Only shows what we want to believe
Leaving nothing but ripples in its wake
To deceive (to deceive)
Lost in the mist... (hmmmmm)
