And I knew there was no place
better than here

more air than here
that I could [free fall
in]

and swim through
endless pastures of gold
pure gold
[a thread through a sequin]
and tiny shards of glass
where I can see my face
sparkling

there is no you
no individual you
or me
or dust devil to destroy us
[a volcano]
to melt the gold

you and I and dust and coal
and that strip of pink
in the sunset's sky
we're all made together

And I know there is no place
better than here.
