The place I leave behind, in the dust,
Some day I'll reminisce, if I must,
And call up from the past, all I'm hoping to forget,
The threat of old regrets,
The place I leave behind takes your voice,
Conformity a rule, not a choice,
A peg to fit a hole, shaped to someone else's needs,
Indeed, but now I'm freed,
Run, never look back, grinning as I pack,
Things that may remind, me of the tedious grind:
The place I leave behind,
The place I leave behind, with its ghosts,
I learned from them that first and foremost,
That staying put would mean, losing part of what was me,
Ennui a certainty,
Run never look back, grinning as I pack,
Things that may remind, me of that tedious grind:
The place I leave behind,
The place I leave behind, finally,
Is relegated to history,
I've burned a final bridge, linking me to yesterday,
Okay I'm on my way,
Nothing left to make me stay,
I'll take a pass, now it's passe...
