I remember the day I crashed a cascade
Like everything was free and there's nothing to save
I was walking across my bedroom floor
Til it opened up and I dunno what for 
I called it depression, a dark night of the soul 
But it's more like the thunder in the way the waves roll
Beckoning freedom in its refrain
It's holding my hand and quenching the pain
And suddenly ten years later I see
That this thing called awakening has happened to me
And I'm breaking down barriers and all the walls
The people are clapping, they're simply enthralled
And I try to take tea with the powers that be
But they say too much and it's silently
I am and I move and I'm not in that groove
But I'm living my loss like it's a point to prove 
And I run to the fountain but it just pours the rain
There's nothing to lose if there's nothing to gain
But sometimes I'm sideways and I simply can't see
And they told me, hey baby, just get a degree
Then you can be a pronouncement of real
But I'm more like diamonds and there's something of steel
In the fire of the blood that runs through my veins
I'm not in the market for any of the new strains 
Yet, somewhere in autumn it meets my toes
And I'm like the wind, it's anything goes 
Till I'm tumbling, rolling down a hill
I don't say stop, I just say it's God's will
But he pulls me up short and says, hey child
I didn't give you this freedom so you could go wild
Have some concern and rein in those wolves
I know you're  a diagram and anything pulls 
And it's winter and all the snow covers land 
I say, hey up, it's gonna be grand
But I gotta be true and I gotta be real
I can't fall down to what I don't feel 
In the ocean, in the sea, in the tide, in the waves
In anything goes and you're gonna save
The monument from it's disaster
I said yes just coz you asked her
