Lake Bodom

perched on the dark waters edge
my pale reflection
rippling in Lake Bodom

it's eerie past
a reflection of my own
I see my lost teenage soul

I feel a strange connection
to the horrors of this lake
the trauma that I cannot shake

since my life was altered
I've drowned in regret
my once radiant soul now seeks death

I tell my reflection to please pull me in
Pull me to Bodom's pit, Pull me in
I belong in this ravaged lake of sin
