"Taking Inventory Of A Frozen Lake" lyrics

"Taking Inventory Of A Frozen Lake"

What's in my heart? It's a frozen lake
What's in my heart? It's a list of names with no ending

Just kept focusing on the sound of my voice
Dip your pen into the water
Watch the ink as it escapes its life
Can you relate?
All the secrets in your wake, like

What's in my heart? It's a long, long way into the past tense
And all this time, we watch go by
You're getting far away when you're right beside me
A missing page of our mistakes
It's getting cold

Just keep holding onto the breath in your body
Place yourself under the water
Shed your thoughts and watch them drifting by
Like frozen lights
All those questions never thought, like

What's in my heart? It's a frozen lake with no ending
All this time, we watch go by
You're getting far away when you're right beside me
A missing page of our mistakes
It's getting cold outside in the summertime

The rivers dry but the subways are flooded
You walk the streets like a tall, thin flame
I searched the mirror but the mirror was empty
It's never as dark as the light from a cold white page

It's time, you're getting far away—
It's time, it's time, it's time, it's time

Deep inside my heart, there's a missing page
Deep inside my heart, there's a missing page

As you walked the platform in a daze
You swore that sleep was a place that we would never reach
(Just keep searching, holding on)
And the things of this world fell away
You showed me empty hands were the only kind that ever prayed
(Just keep searching, holding on)
