lyrics

There is a lake on South Street
Where all the old souls go to drown
It is the place I’d like to meet
You when I’m old and in the ground

I’ll sit you down and talk you through
All of the things you’ve done to me
When you decided not to show
And when your friends made fun of me

But you just laughed along you said
You don’t remember that at all
You don’t remember but I do

And I wish I was as smart as you
And I wish I was funny too
And I wish I was because of you
I wish I was you

And when I’m done I will ascend
And you’ll pretend it’s just a dream
But I’ll come back to you again
And haunt you every hallowe’en

I will come back once a year
And you will fear it every night
You’ll see me over your bed
When you lay your head turn off the light

And you will pray and pray and pray
To your god but he’s not mine
He cannot stop me from my vengeance
Can’t stop your afterlife sentence

And I wish I was as smart as you
And I wish I was funny too
And I wish I was because of you
I wish I was through
