I can't explain the way I feel today

Like the rug's been ripped out from under my frame

Still here I stand, with some pride but no plan

Some flame but no fan to spread it around all the room

When I wake up, that dream I always dreamt

Comes alive with color and verve (To some extent)

We've extended the reach of family

A support so tried and true

We thought we'd break without them

But we'll make due with what we have

A love so large and grand, it could fill up a canyon

Or an ocean run dry, by our excessive greed

Or our excessive need for steady things

We threw ourselves headfirst into the banks

Took a chance, took a risk, when no one else would

Now we're standing here face to red face

Our surroundings melt down to black and white blurs

Mountain tops line far cross the sky

And it never gets old, and I never know why

Or what caused us to think up this place

As a paradise built by hands close to breaking
