Pick a New Path

Lay in bed and cry away
Ignore the hummingbirds 
And the warmth of a sunny day
Block out all those words

Fantasies and fairy tales 
A wish upon a star
You can dream but it always fails
You're lost, alone and far
Away from help today
Don't try to go back home
No, don't you try to go back home

I see your cunning plan, Jen ... I read this, and now all I can think is "I wanna go home!"
