Conor says the title of this song was taken from the IOS app “Naturscape” which is intended to help people sleep. His wife gave him an iPhone and put the app on the phone because he has trouble sleeping. “Night At Lake Unknown” is one of the sounds you can choose.
[Verse 1]
It don't take much imagination
To see the picture frame
I don't need my concentration
To know when I'm in pain
[Chorus]
When I lost myself, I lost you by extension
I don't know who would stand to gain
These silly dreams aren't worth a mention
But they keep collecting in my brain
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
When I break my heart, I know that yours gets broken
I just wish that kept me in line
But I can't live outside the moment
And it keeps leaving me behind
It just keeps leaving me behind
[Verse 3]
When I can't sleep, my mind's a circle
I watch the ceiling fan
I close my eyes and I feel the wind blow
My bed, it turns into a raft
[Chorus]
I drift away, it's 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
With what is left, we'll have to live
