Conor Oberst - Night at Lake Unknown lyrics

rate me

It don't take much imagination to see the picture frame

And I don't need my concentration to know when I'm in pain

When I lost myself I lost you by extension

I don't know who would stand to gain

All these silly dreams aren't worth a mention

But they keep collecting in my brain

I went on the hunt for fame and fortune

Picked up the trail just fine

Everywhere I go the doors fly open

But I want out once I'm inside

When I break my heart I know that yours get broken

I just wish that kept me in line

But I can't live outside the moment

And it keeps leaving me behind x2

When I can't sleep my mind's a circle

I watch the ceiling fan

I close my eyes and feel the wind blow

My bed it turns into a raft

I drift away each night at Lake Unknown I'm floating

I see it all for what it is

Most anything can be forgiven

With what is left, we'll have to live x2
