Analysis of Find Your Way Around
Don't reach a trap. Just read the map.
Find your way around.
Don't give a snap. Just take a nap.
Find your music sound.
Don't hurt a flea. Just cop a plea.
Find your gremlin-elf.
Don't reel in glee. Just sip the tea.
Find your higher-self.
Don't wear a hood. Just do the good.
Find your karmic bliss.
Don't be withstood. Just cut the wood.
Find your divine kiss.
Don't make a shred. Just pall the dead.
Find your own surcease.
Don't tear a thread. Just eat the bread.
Find your inner peace.
