lyrics

You've found safe haven here, friend.
You have a lifetime's worth of travel hidden beneath your tired feet.
If it's rest you want, then it's rest you'll get.
We are the nurturers that Mother Earth has borne to pass the torch.
So take root, feet deep within Her soil.
Breathe in Her oxygen.
You'll feel inspired, feel empowered.
You'll never want to leave again!
Just let us help you.
Let us train you.
Let us into your mind.
We will eradicate that former life that you'd left behind.
I need to grow up.
I need to grow old.
I need to grow, but I don't want to grow alone.
If you start as a sapling, you'll end as a tree.
I see the ideals you have placed in front of me.
It's not that I don't appreciate it, I just doubt the morality.
I just doubt immortality.
The intrepid and bold have gone where none have gone before.
But without security, what will my future have in store?
With your mantra, I am not impressed.
I need no sympathy.
I did the math. I checked the facts.
I know who I want to be:
A great man with works to be proud of and only an ounce of pride.
You make mistakes.
We all make mistakes.
It's just the lesson of life.
I need to grow up.
I need to grow old.
I need to grow, but I don't want to grow alone.
You know nothing of despair.
You have never experienced the full gamut of emotion.
Without strife, you are weak.
Great Mathematician in the sky, please bless my quest with fortune.
I know that fabled "slice of life" gets handed out by portions.
I need this honor for myself, for I had taken an oath to rid myself of negative and start over with growth.
