Forever In The Dark
Come stir the echoes
Come glimpse the realm
In red stilettos
She fails to underwhelm
Oh John Maynard Keynes
where have you gone?
We're swimming in this lake of fire
Yes we are
Our situation's growing dire
So pass the caviar
Between the barnstorms
Beneath the sea
We keep the seats warm
to some degree
Oh John Maynard Keynes
where have you gone?
We're swimming in this lake of fire
Yes we are
Our situation's growing dire
So pass the caviar
Oh, can you open your eyes in a dream?
Though it may all be a fraudulent scheme
We shall find what we have sought
We will find a way
As we flee the things we've wrought
While we are led astray
Once we electrified the south
now they're all frothing at the mouth
As we confront the fear we face
In the emptiness of space
I once stood there in that place
But alas it's been erased
Forever in the dark
Forever in the dark
