[RYAN]
So you're cruising along at college,
First semester winding down.
And you're finally over "first semester shock".
Now the holidays are approaching,
So it's back to your old town.
Back to solid ground.
Your family
Your rock.
Yeah, there's nothing like heading homeward
To clear the mental fog.
The photographs in your mem'ry never blur.
So you're thinking about your parents,
your sister Beth and Spike, your dog.
They're frozen in your head the way they were.
'Cause there's a footprint you left there,
Indelible and deep.
It's the core of your identity,
The principles you keep.
Your footprint. Your history.
It's who you are.
So you run to hug your parents
And Beth calls you a geek,
And when you yell for Spike, your dad says,
"Son, we had to put him down last week."
