if you're lost, hug a tree
if you're scared, hug a tree
if you're alone, hold a dream catcher to your hair
in you're confused, run your voice through the air
if you're hurt, hold a petal to your lips
if you're detached, bring his hands to your hips
if you're in pain, stretch out in the simple sun
if you're apathetic, let her share their fun
if you're stuck, look to the moon
if you're oppressed, leave this dark room.

when you're happy, kiss a flower
when you're in love, tell everyone every hour
when you're exited, blow a dandelion make a wish
when you're creative, move your body like a fish
when you're ready, let the wind teach you to fly
when you're confident, toss your tears to the sky
when you're loved, share the stars you discovered under the rocks,
when you have energy, make puppets out of your old socks
when you're young, sing your made-up songs
when you're adventurous, wear your hair long.

if you're invisible, play hide-and-seek in the snow,
when you want to be found, let me know.
