Like a lamb to its slaughter
Buried in water
Down
Under the ground
There's a town there
I've been down there
In the middle of the lake
I hold your hand for goodness' sake
When the women and the kids are asleep
The wolves there in the skin of the sheep
So lock all the windows and doors
The Devil's coming for you and yours
Love was all that it could give
But it died so other towns could live
They don't bury bodies from the drowned
But they drowned our little town
Like a lamb to his slaughter
Buried in water
Buried in water
Buried in water
When the leaves
Go floating away
In the pale moonlight of day
Bury anchors in our ghosts
And we can let our heartbeats go
Love was all that it could give
But it died so other towns could live
They don't bury bodies from the drowned
But they drowned our little town
Love was all that it could give
But it died so other towns could live
They don't bury bodies from the drowned
But they drowned our little town
We're like the lambs to its slaughter
Buried in water
Buried in water
Buried in water
