I  am holding half  an acre
Torn  fromthemap  of  Michigan
 And folded in  this scrap  of paper
 Is the land  I grew  in
Think  of every town  you've lived in
Every room  you  lay your head
 And what  is it  that you  remember
 Do you carry  every  sadness with  you
Every  hour  your heart  was broken
Every  night  the fear  and darkness
Lay  down with  you
 A man  is walking on  the highway
 A woman stares  out at  the sea
 And light  is only now  just breaking
 So we carry  every  sadness  with  us
Every  hour  our hearts  were broken
Every  night  the fear  and darkness
Lay  down with  us
 But I  am holding half  an acre
Torn  fromthemap  of  Michigan
 And folded in  this scrap  of paper
 That can crack  the darkest  sky  wide open
Every  burden  taken  from me
Every  night  my heart  unfolding
]
 My home
