The guests are stood in silence
They stare and drink their wine
On the wall the canvas hangs
Frozen there in time
At the wake of the Medusa, no one shed a tear
Sit, my friends, and listen
Put your glasses down
Sit, my friends, and listen to the voices of the drowned
In the moonlight's ghostly glow, I waken in a dream
Once more on that raft I stand upon a raging sea
In my ears the moans and screams of the dying ring
Somewhere in the darkness, the siren softly sings
Out there in the waves she stands, and smiling there she calls
As the lightning cracks the sky, the wind begins to howl
The architects of our doom around their tables sit
And in their thrones of power, condemn those they've cast adrift
Echoes down the city street, their harpies' laughter rings
Waiting for the curtain call, oblivion's in the wings
The casket is empty
They ran off with the money
The casket is empty
They ran off with the money
