The Poet and the Muse Lyrics

I feel lucky to be the first one to comment. The song has a very deep meaning. If we listen and hum the song, it feels more like a narration of a story of a couple where the muse drowns herself, selfishly, and the poet who is deeply in love is now left alone. And as he lives his life, trying to get over her but couldn't really get over her, he feels that the only way to really get over it is to know the reason exactly caused her death. So he thinks of a witch, who must have pulled his love to drown. But one day, he sees his love and she takes him by the lake and since both are in love very much, the poet drowns himself too. The actual meaning is about getting over a relationship, which is extremely tough. And there are at times you think so much about it that even in dreams you see or meet your ex, I have seen my ex so many times... But she is very much alive and seeing someone else. I get super J. Wish there was a lake where I could drown myself and realize she was the witch!
