Rise so high, yet so far to fall.

A plan of dignity and balance for all.

Political breakthrough, euphoria's high.

More borrowed money, more borrowed time.

Backed in a corner, caught up in the race.

Means to an end ended in disgrace.

Perspective is lost in the spirit of the chase.

Chorus

Foreclosure of a dream,

Those visions never seen,

Until all is lost,

Personal Holocaust.

Foreclosure of a dream.

Barren land that once filled a need,

Are worthless now, dead without a deed.

Slipping away from an iron grip,

Nature's scales are forced to tip,

The heartland cries, loss of all pride

. To leave ain't believing, so try and be tried.

Insufficient funds, insanity and suicide.

Chorus

Solo-Dave

Now with new hope some will be proud.

This is no hoax, no one pushed out.

Receive a reprieve and be a pioneer.

Break new ground of a new frontier.

New ideas will surely get by.

No deed, or dividend. Some may ask "Why?"

You'll find the solution, the answers in the sky.

Solo-Marty

Rise so high, yet so far to fall.

A plan of dignity and balance for all.

Political breakthrough, euphoria's high.

More borrowed money, more borrowed time.

Chorus

Holocaust
