Wildest Ride on Earth

It was just an ordinary day

Normal things done in the normal way

In places that I love – with faces I hold dear

A summers day, a rainy night

A child's laugh, a lover's fight

A road we traveled well with nothing to fear

It was just an ordinary day

Then in a moment everything had changed

Out of the familiar – into the unknown

I close my eyes, hold my breath

Caught between life and death

I'm gonna have to take this ride alone

The bar comes down, I'm hanging on

The panic starts to rise

A twist – a turn, the bottom drops

I'm fighting for my life

My heart pounds, can't catch my breath

And everything's a blur

No one wants a ticket

For the wildest ride on earth

Oh

You wish that there was something you could do

You reach for me – I reach for you

Down another valley – again over the top

An open mouth, a silent scream

All our hopes, all our dreams

Who knows when this ride will finally stop?

The bar comes down, I'm hanging on

The panic starts to rise

A twist – a turn, the bottom drops

I'm fighting for my life

My heart pounds, can't catch my breath

And everything's a blur

No one wants a ticket

For the wildest ride on earth

I keep thinking that this nightmare just can't be

God why is this happening to me?

The ride slows down but is it at an end?

I might have to face it all again

Searching for a reason – longing to be free

Such a scary place to be

My face is in the mirror and my feet are on the floor

I still don't have the answers, but I'm stronger than before

Living in the moment now for everything its worth

Another brave survivor of the wildest ride on earth

Wildest ride on earth

Ohhh yeah

Wildest ride
