lyrics

"10.15 at the steeple bell,
I promise not to kiss and tell,"
Was scrawled across my palm,
As I surfaced from that frigid lake,
The ink seeping into my veins,
My blue hands reaching out,
I looked up to see the silhouettes
Of twelve collected, teenage heads,
Their souls escaping from their mouths.

We all joined hands, our movements whisper quiet,
And with one quick prayer, our bodies set to plummet,
And I almost marveled at how we'd all vowed in silence,
To close our eyes and count to twenty,
At ten, with fingers crossed,
We'll dive into the tarn
Cause it's love!

Twenty leagues of falling degrees,
Passed by before my fists began to ease,
And I caught sight of the time.
Just the thought of you risking all to prove,
That winter nights can't stem the march of youth,
Was enough to rouse my fears.

The shoreline changed from savior to a siren,
And with one quick step, my legs filled with hellfire,
And I almost swam back to where we'd all vowed in silence,
To close our eyes and count to twenty,
At ten with fingers crossed
We'll dive into the tarn,

And Margot, don't be a hero,
Don't you know you've never been so bound?
