When I was at home, I wasn't shy. I was the clown at home, because I was loved. It was in the outside world that I was judged and I wasn't loved. That was very clear to me, that I wasn't loved.

The quietest person in the classroom, that was me. But that wasn't me at home.

Shaded with trees and leaves like a piggy bank filled with memories. You'll see why a person would want to live there forever.

Exhilirate the spirit, and restore
The tone of languid nature.
