Nymphs Finding the Head of Orpheus (Extended Version) lyrics

[Verse 1]
In the skeletal remains
Of a pool long since drained
Filled with rain
Reclaimed by nature
Through the dark, I wade
As if in its glory days
Knowing that I'll make myself sick from the water
Knowing all my tears and rage could load a revolver

[Chorus]
I used to think you must be the water I drink
Holding me down in these waters down beneath
Singing to the sound of my screaming
But now I see

[Verse 2]
In the dark, I wait, right here where I once sunbathed
With all of my dreams unfit for day
With all of my tears and all my rage

[Chorus]
I used to think you must be the water I drink
Holding me down in these waters down beneath
Singing to the sound of my screaming
I used to dream of the day it’d be just you and me like the Wild West
Both of us shooting till one of us was dead
[Outro]
And this I swear
Nymphs find the head of Orpheus
I'll sing when I'm dead
