Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The ice is thin, come on, dive in
Underneath my lucid skin
The cold is lost, forgotten
Hours pass, days pass, time stands still
Light gets dark and darkness fills
My secret heart forbidden
[Instrumental]
I think you worried for me then
The subtle way that I'd give in
But I know you liked the show
And tied down to this bed of shame
Tried to move around the pain
But, oh, your soul is anchored
[Chorus]
Oh, the only comfort is the moving of the river
You enter into me a lie upon your lips
Offer what you can, I'll take all that I can get
Only a fool's here
[Instrumental]
Well, I don't like your tragic sighs
As if your god has passed you by
Well, hey fool, that's your deception
Your angels speak with jilted tongues
The serpent's tail has come undone
You have no strength to squander
[Chorus]
Oh, the only comfort is the moving of the river
You enter into me a lie upon your lips
Offer what you can, I'll take all that I can get
Only a fool's here to stay
Only a fool's here to stay
Only a fool's here to
[Instrumental]
Thank you
