and so it began, a tale growing long
seems my dreams so far away from the present daily
besides sunshine and downtime play
a world without end
like words without song
i count better days among the way life scares me
and darkness blends, making me strong
and i never been down, falling over, or crying out
so i never been up, drowning in my luck
talented tales, infinite throng
as i take a taste today i'm sure is the day that fails me
making me grasp and leading me on
curious space, and no giving up
this gate opened up and threw away complaining
so i'm shedding my face and filling the cup
