You can go now - You can go escape
With your books and clothes - and your plastic cape
With your midnight oil - and your heart attack
Don't ever be afraid to turn back
With your shotgun head - and a wicked smile
With your angel moods - and a forced denial
With your social gifts - and the simple facts
Don't ever be afraid to turn back
When you're on the road five hours from here
Your youth you know - it's your age you fear
Pulls you hard and fast
From the bones you've cracked
Up ahead the forest disappears
In a muddy creek on a camping trip
You turn the corner on a mind that's good to flip
And you force away from all that you attract
Don't ever be afraid to turn back
