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 climes
And 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
Return
First 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 climes
And 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
And put straight
The things that make you shy away
Return to these shores
Honest and headstrong
Cause fancy disguises deceive no one
But yourself
