The Donner Party

Blimp Attack on lead guitar.

Here Ive come to rest in
My alpine mausoleum
My fears and joys frozen within
I dreamed of California
My tomb high in the Sierra
The ambitions that led me here
I commit my final gift of flesh
I prey it pulls you through

(Chorus)
All that was, now frozen
My heart beats on
My love you must on
Don’t forget me.

This bleak revelation came
On a starlight winters night
Our hears so full of wonder
Our passion did ignite
From Springfield we set off
Dreams of the Golden West
Our impatience and avarice led us into this mess

(Chorus)

A fork the road
Did damage untold
My body so cold
God save my soul.

Winter Solstice has come and gone
Springtime will soon be here
Sunshine will thaw the ice but
Will you conscience be clear?
Tallying up all that was lost
California frontier
Did what you had to survive
But the legend won’t disappear
