To answer the age old question, why are we here?

You've traveled through the states to make the reason clear

You know of course the past holds nothing, but distant lost lies

But while the future has yet to come the present soon subsides

The truth is nearer to you than you may ever know

It sprinkles on you like morning dew or a midnight winter's snow

You must open your mind and educate the acres of your land

Travel through the frigid mountains and through the desert sand

Across the flowing river that runs through the forest green and tall

Where you will see the open skies in the seasons of spring and fall

You're almost there just a little furthur past the dangerous rocky path

And across the ocean and the seas where you will feel their wrath

One last obstacle you have to pass is extreme and soon to come

There's no way else to get around it so you had better run

You've done it all, you've made it through the agonizing pain

You have defeated all the weather including snow and rain

And now you come face to face with that which you have seeked

You finally have come to this, but now your body's weak

Open the door to your imagination the truth is just beyond

You walk across the marble floor, you spot an indoor pond

Turn the knob to the door when you have come to see

That you have traveled all this way, but you forgot the key
