My shadow stretched before me
Footprints behind
I breach these virgin beaches
For the first and last time
Though I'm a**igned a mission
I brought my own
To change the disposition
Of the girl I left home
One small step for
The man she wept for
A giant way to make amends
And if she questions
My best intentions
I'll leave this monument to stand
By tracing Tracy's name in the sand
I read the news of losing
The wings we'd won
Our wax and feathers melted
Too near the sun
They came to claim my white suit
So I shed my skin
I brushed the stars from my boots
And turned them in
No more steps toward
What I once leapt for
I'm trapped by gravity again
And if my quest was ever questioned
I left a monument to stand
By tracing Tracy's name
By tracing Tracy's name
By tracing Tracy's name
In the sand
