Black Lagoon (Cold Circuit Mix)
[Verse 1] From the reeds where the moonlight shivers I rise slow from the silt and stone Hear the drip from my scale-marked fingers Feel the pull of your warm red glow You stand there on the rotting pier Soft breath, soft skin, so close I taste fear in the river air A sweetness I never chose [Chorus] Come down, come down to the black lagoon Where the water keeps every secret true You run, you scream at a face like mine But your heart beats loud in the dark like mine Come down, come down where the lilies bloom You are lost, you are found in the black lagoon [Verse 2] I know love as a drowning hunger I know hands that throw stones, then pray Shadows dance on your trembling shoulders While my eyes never look away They shine lights through my silver darkness Call me curse, call me myth, call me wrong But the deep hums low beneath your heartbeat You have heard my oldest song [Chorus] Come down, come down to the black lagoon Where the water keeps every secret true You run, you scream at a shape like mine But your pulse rings wild in the night like mine Come down, come down where the cattails loom You are bound, you are crowned by the black lagoon [Bridge] You think you stand on solid ground (Yeah) But it leans toward the murk below (Hey) Every wish that you ever drowned (Ooh) Found a home in the undertow I am mirror, I am wound I am all you hide from view Every monster you name me now Wakes the creature inside you [Chorus] Come down, come down to the black lagoon Let the river write both our names in blue You run, you reach for a world of light But you dream in green where the currents bite Come down, come down, hear the hunger croon You are mine, for a time, in the black lagoon [Outro] In the reeds where the last waves shiver I sink back beneath mud and bone Still I keep one cold hand extended For the hearts that feel alone When you fear what the dark might do When you flinch from a face unknown Hear my voice in the midnight water I am you in the black lagoon (ooh)
