lyrics

THE CHARCOAL POOL

All that summer my dreams were strange, and stranger still
was the dark, dark water.
All that summer my dreams were storms,
churned by a germ
in the dark, dark water.

The water is lifeless, and the water is glistening with life.
Who lurks in its dark depths, you never will see.
O woe betide, if you put your head under!
I've been told not to go down,
But the blackness and depths call me down.

All that summer they felt my head,
And measured the heat that consumed my body.
All that summer my dreams were strange,
I yearned to return to the dark, dark water.

The water is lifeless, and the water is glistening with life.
Who lurks in its dark depths, you never will see.
O woe betide if you put your head under!
I've been told not to go down,
But the blackness and depths call me down.

O I've been told not to go down...
