"The Lake" lyrics

"The Lake"

I made enemies with mountains and I lay vanquish to the sea
Got a dial tone
Told 'em you're not home
Now you can come make enemies with me

I diverted from the river and I dumped the toxins in the lake
I was red-misted
And you missed it
Now you know my injuries aren't fake

Half a life forgetting all your faces has just led me to this
Now remind me what it is that I was ever good at?

I ruined the speeches at the wedding and at dinner I embarrassed our friends
But it was funny, no?
Worth waiting around for!
What's a disappointment's weight worth in gold?

I slept on each and all your favourites and now I say that I was from the start
I'm branching out
With a twist and a shout
Buying taste with insufficient amounts

Half a life forgetting all your faces has just led me to this
Now remind me what it is that I was ever good at again?
