Don’t look behind you--
There’s something lurking in the shadows,
An invisible force that no one can escape.
Don’t look behind you--
You don’t want to meet its controlling eyes.
Don’t look behind you--
There’s something you can’t run away from,
No matter how hard you try.
Don’t look behind you--
You don’t want to show it you’re on the outside.
Don’t look behind you--
There’s something waiting to regulate the way you think, act, dress, talk;
To take away your freedom of expression.
Don’t look behind you--
You don’t want to be brainwashed, and forced into an identity that isn’t your own.
Don’t look behind you--
Behind you stands the most horrific monster of all,
One that sleeps under every bed, and hides in every closet.
Don’t look behind you--
If you want to ever be able to be yourself.
