Backward Journey

til this journey does take place!
I'm gonna walk the straight and narrow
but I'm getting ready just in case
I hope it's not for many years

so I'm a little scared!
this trip can happen anytime
make sure I'm well prepared
So I better get my butt in gear

and get my conscience clear?
I must be sure to make amends
or other travel gear.
I won't need a suitcase

this Journey's just one way.
Unlike most other Journeys
there's not much more to say
It's a Journey everyone must make

and don't really want to go.
I don't know when I'm leaving
exactly where I do not know
I'm going on a Journey
