Lyrics
"Her scarf didn't cover her neck
It only attempted at her stain
She held the keys to the cabin
And she keeps them, to keep me safe"
That last night spent on the pull out
Waking up to fuel the flame
We saw and we slept
But we were restless anyway
You tried to boil the river
With an old kettle from the sink
It got hot
But we never heard it scream
We locked us in, locked the land
But the doors kept us in
I was and I'm pregnable
An ordinary man
And, this pond will consume me
Now we're back in the present
We can't hide for long
Just pop your collar up
We ain't did nothin wrong
We need to hope for the future
And know about the past
Before we make up our minds
With what we know is gonna last
We drove back to town
No radio, no words
The snow spoke for us, honey
And the pain spoke from the terms
To deny is to refute
That today will be gone
And so we will with it
But tomorrow will come
And, I wish this pond would consume me
You bid me adieu
And I say to you goodbye
My love will last forever
But your memories will die
I'll recall what you said
The only beauty from that night
"If the moon could tell us something
It would say that we were right"
Why do you feel so ashamed
I'm the one so scared to leave
Cause I marked you with my name
When we were scared to see
But we know that we die
So if we're gonna sleep off our days
Let's just do it with our pride
Cause it don't matter anyway
And, this pond has consumed me
