I Can See Canyons - Driver Friendly, Austin

Canyon, can you help me out

I need a foot hold

I need solid ground

Let the water carve a path

Erode the things that made me whole

Draw a line across the sand

So you know exactly where I stand

Canyon, can you take me down

To the bottom

Where I can’t be found

I look up and all I see are

Miles and miles of sky staring back at me

Simple subtlety escapes me

A bridge across the sky to cut the great divide

Delusions of grandeur blur the line

Between who I am and what I need

I am holding my breath with every step I take

I’m holding on to very mistake I make

And I feel it coming down and I can’t escape

An endless canyon separates me

From who I am and who I want to be

What’s the measure of a man

If he can’t even stand on his own two feet.
