Back back now we go
to where we all know
Everything that once was
Will’ve remained just the same
They’ll ignore that you’ve grown
And the world that you’ve known
They’ll call you a child
And it will drive you insane
But you’ll nod and you’ll smile
And think all the while
You left them behind
And they’re not to blame.
All the places you’ve seen
Could never have been
But for their support of your spirit
Your heart, soul, and brain
So back back we will roam
To our childhood home
Where time has stood still
And you’ll rejoin their game
Pretend to be small
That you know nothing at all
That you’re an innocent child
Quiet and tame.
