We ran until the house was gone from sight behind us Hours passed before the trees began to open Then the darkness gave way to miles of quiet water So still it almost looked forgiving It's strange how something peaceful can make you this afraid It's strange how something so peaceful can make you this afraid It's strange how some places make you want to turn away There's no time for doubt Keep going... Keep going... The mud still holds our weight Every step sinks deeper than the one before The water keeps rising The distance stretches longer And moving forward gets heavier each time Then the ground stops meeting my feet Keep going. Keep going. Something changes at the far edge of the water ...and I barely catch the last moment of something entering the lake It's strange how something so peaceful can make you this afraid It's strange how some places make you want to turn away There's no time for doubt GO, GO, GO! Swim as hard as you can! The shore isn't getting closer as fast as our arms are moving! GO, GO, GO! Don't stop to look behind! Something crossed that distance faster than we ever could! GO! This feels like a recurring nightmare That same feeling... just like Nadir Here... the surface gives us nothing Go! Go! GO! My knees hit the ground Keep moving Keep moving!
