In the cold Tahoe sun,
there's a game still unwon.
But still I persist,
though in this place no hope exists.
But forever, we'll still fight-
though there's no hope,
we still see light.
They might take my heart away
but with the trees my heart will stay.
When I left the place, I felt renewed.
Unshakable grace, I still pursue.
And in the end, if there's nothing left.
I know that I have tried my best.
