now think what they would do to you,
if they caught you alone
(for the things that you must do).
you could walk in the sun,
but no, you walk alone,
along the path less known and home.
they can talk, and they can hurt.
that's all they can do.
don't talk to them and they cant bury you.
have you been told your problems are your own fault?
it doesn't make them less real,
people will hate you if you are not just as they are.
brought up to hope,
for what i'm just not sure.
some kind of love, some kind of cure.
have i been instilled with such false dreams?
lord, i hope there's no grand scheme.
you could walk in the sun, but you walk alone.
along the path less known and home.
