Foraker

Foraker - Cyrus Reynolds/S. Carey

Frozen steps in their place

They're the kind you can't retrace

I'm walking off Foraker

Folding over on yourself

And lifted to a higer shelf

I'll never just forsake her

In the altered glow

You don't have to speak

In the ice and snow

True we'll be closer then

You're my Foraker

Drawing letters in snowlines

Must be thinking of another time

And I'll take the higher ground

Pillars of my faith below

They're holding up all that we know

And I'll make a Puget Sound

Cut your teeth in the earth

With these rivers of fears

You'll shoulder your worth

Through a half million years

You're my Foraker

I thought we might rule

The whole damn world

You never saw

But I'll love you the same
