[hometext] => But remember, looks can be deceiving!
[bodytext] => You look across the future Green blossomy hills do lie Your only disconnection from them Is that there on the other side. The candy and cakes and beauty The laughter smiles the fun The friendly faces and blue sky The glowing moon and sparkling sun. You take the step onto this The world of beauty and hope And find it is all a painting Now that you are up close. The candy canes are oil pastel The laughter from a machine And each beautiful star that shone so bright Is nothing more than an LED beam. So you rush back to find your bridge As it’s slowly crumbling away And each step you take a wooden plank falls You develop many wounds, scrapes. As you reach your past side It’s now taken a different form The comforting road that lay there for you Now seems to be gone. So you are forced into building a path Maybe you’ll think twice about being in a rush To head over to that other side The one full of fake lush.
