abandoned house

No plans tonight, no hangouts The morgue is closed for the day now Hard to know that no one knows a thing about me I'll see where the morning light takes me Bike along through the smell of hot pastries Stay out of their way, don't bother Only feel at peace by the water There's a old house at the edge of the lake Always catches my eye when I walk to my place A dock at the end with a big metal gate Doesn't look all that far, just a boat ride away There's something that's strange, a mystery tempting A mansion of stone, what a shame if it's empty Moss on the walls and covered by trees A view that I see in my dreams Maybe it's dark and abandoned or crawling with mice Or a lady of age that's barely alive One day I'll leave home on a lonely adventure See for myself what's inside of this treasure Grab a bag and a flashlight Don't wanna get caught, leave at night Walk on the edge where it's shallow Boots to my knees, bright yellow, yeah No plans tonight, no hangouts The morgue is closed for the day now Hard to know that no one knows a thing about me I'll see where the morning light takes me Bike along through the smell of hot pastries Stay out of their way, don't bother Only feel at peace by the water
