The Builders And The Butchers
"Bottom Of The Lake"

i got a new home
down among the fish and grass and stones
i was taken down because of stole money that was owed
you can have fun with a little fire
but if you paint me as a liar
you can count your days and watch the steps you take

you can find me at the bottom of the lake
you can find me at the bottom of the lake
at the bottom of the lake where the roots all grow
where the sun don't shine and the wind don't blow
you can find me at the bottom of the lake

oh, you can take a penny
you can put one upon each eye
i rode a pair of concrete boots on the cold day that i died
and i wore a black stone
i had one outstanding loan
i couldn't pay, oh, but i will pay 'cause my life they stole away

you can find me at the bottom of the lake
you can find me at the bottom of the lake
at the bottom of the lake where the roots all grow
where the sun don't shine and the wind don't blow
you can find me at the bottom of the lake

and it's so much better on my mind not to count my days
and it's so much better on my mind not to count my days
and it's so much better on my mind not to count my days
it's so much better on my mind not to count my days
not to count my days

i got a new home
down among the fish and grass and stones
i was taken down because of stole money that was owed
you can have fun with a little fire
but if you paint me as a liar
you can count your days and watch the steps you take

you can find me at the bottom of the lake
you can find me at the bottom of the lake
at the bottom of the lake where the roots all grow
where the sun don't shine and the wind don't blow
you can find me at the bottom of the lake
