All around me
In this woodland
There are paths

Paths to take you out
Paths to take you further in
Paths that lead to paths

I don't want paths
I want to discover
All on my own

I don't want the answers
Inside of a once-beautiful place
I want my own chance

To find my own way out
And discover my own path
Around the trees

I don't want to follow someone
Else's path
It is theirs

I will find mine
One that belongs to me
One that will not allow another to follow
