I have not found a better home,
I have looked for an eternity.
Every road took me somewhere,
eventually I found myself lost.

The paths I chose blossomed
and horses walked them happy.
Yet, these roads are not for everyone,
you too, may find yourself lost.

If you travel by night,
the Moon will shine the way.
If you travel by day,
the Sun can take you astray.

For these paths, the roads,
are not for everyone.
So turn back and believe me,
as I have walked this way before.

You are not supposed to be here,
this road leads to a lonely desert.
I have warned you once already,
the next won't help you at all.

You have run past your happiness,
now walking in the night,
this road of loneliness
will be the end of you.

I know, as I have walked this way before.
It is only, a highway to desolation,
which no one should go.

And now you know,
which way is home.
