The Crystal Lake Lyrics
(Should never have left the crystal lake)
Should never have left the crystal lake
For parties full of folks who flake
Italian leather winter games
Retired by the Duraflames
The crystal lake, it only laughs
It knows you're just a modern man
It's shining like a chandelier
Shining somewhere far away from here
I've gotta get out of here
I've gotta get out of here
I've gotta get out of here
I've gotta get out of here
And find my way again
I've lost my way again
(Should never have left the crystal lake)
Should never have left the crystal lake
For areas where trees are fake
And dogs are dead with broken hearts
Collapsing by the coffee carts
The crystal lake, it only laughs
It knows you're just a modern man
It's shining like a chandelier
Shining somewhere far away from here
I've gotta get out of here
I've gotta get out of here
I've gotta get out of here
I've gotta get out of here
And find my way again
I've lost my way again
