Lyrics
Family
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Family, family first
Sworn to be brought up then burst
Quiet car rides
Acknowledgment of
Who is in there, who is inside
Born between desert and storm
And where they meet never gets warm
Quiet car rides
Memories of
Consenting adults reading on us
Caught between
Desert and storm
But further deeds
That living in
Success, success is failure
Failure is unsure
Success, success is failure
Failure is unsure
Success, success is failure
