Walk along the path {TEFxThe Path crossover}




Walk along the path
If you stray there's no looking back
Take her back
Take the other by the hand, or you may
Make break for it and run the other way
It's okay
You're really, really lost, but it's okay
Maybe you'll stay among the trees or find something new
Is there someone there who's looking for you?

How did you lose your way?
The simplest path is the easiest one to ignore.
Take heed of what they say!
Straight and true - safety is easy!
Your grandma is waiting for you.

Take another breath
Take a breather - get a little rest
Lay in a field of flowers so immense that you get
Dizzy when you see you're not done yet
And every turn you take
Seems to lead you back by mistake
Misty Lake
Clouding up your mind until you can see
The size of his incisors - bigger than me

When is it going to end?
I thought I saw something shiny - you'd better investigate
But not til you find a friend
And maybe he'll make for good company
Back at your grandma's house

Where are you going to now?
Now that you've thrown yourself willingly
Off of the path?
Hanging your head in shame
Shame on you - making us worry!
Your grandma's still waiting for you.


I always thought that people who got lost or died in the Path's forest were spirited away to live as deer in the endless forest
