Like Hansel and Gretel
He was deceived by the gingerbread house
And false hope
Oh, the wondrous power of imagination

But in that house, there was nothing sweet
He had to work quickly for everything
It was his only way to survive
The witch didn't care about his pain

In the end, he left the gingerbread house
And found himself in the forest of fear again
He couldn't even remember how he got there
Or what it felt like to be at home
