this is not the first time – you tried to get away .
this is not a party – where people know your name .
this is not a classroom – with teacher at the board .
this is not a cat show – with prizes at the door .

this is not a horse race – where winner beats the time .
this is not a funeral – with mourners in a line .
this is not a sitcom – where everything’s alright .
this is not a prison – with terror through the night .
