This time
Courageously I
Challenge
your will
To aim arrows
at your chest
For heaven's sake
Point them elsewhere instead
And watch your spine
They're as we speak
Sucking it bone dry
You poor, poor thing
You're vanishing
Leave these unfriendly pastures
Here's too much harm
to cut yourself on
Seek warmer climesAnd
settle in a peaceful place
Forget about your former self
And when you've philosophized
For a while
Found a mantra
to live by
Then return to these shores
ReturnFirst things first
Take advice
I cannot force you
But I swear
on my mother's grave
It's worth it
Leave these unfriendly pastures
Here's too much harm
to cut yourself on
Seek warmer climesAnd settle in a peaceful place
Forget about your former self
And when you've philosophized
For a while
Found a mantra
to live by
Then return
To these shoresAnd put straight
The things that make you
shy away
Return to these shores
Honest
and headstrong
Cause fancy disguises
deceive no oneAnd put straight
The things that make you
shy away
Return to these shores
Honest
and headstrong
Cause fancy disguises
deceive no oneBut yourself
