"Yeah, it's been a bumpy road
Roller coasters high and low
Fill the tank and drive the car
Pedal fast, pedal hard
You won't have to go that far

You wanna give up cause it's dark
We're really not that far apart

So let your heart, sweetheart, be your compass when you're lost
And you should follow it wherever it may go
When it's all said and done you can walk instead of run
'Cause no matter what you'll never be alone
Never be alone
Never be alone

Forgot directions on your way
Don't close your eyes, don't be afraid
We might be crazy late at night
I can't wait til you arrive
Follow stars, you'll be alright

You wanna give up cause it's dark
We're really not that far apart

So let your heart, sweetheart, be your compass when you're lost
And you should follow it wherever it may go
When it's all said and done you can walk instead of run
'Cause no matter what you'll never be alone
Never be alone
Never be alone

You want to give up 'cause it's dark
We're really not that far apart

So let your heart, sweetheart, be your compass when you're lost
And you should follow it wherever it may go
When it's all said and done you can walk instead of run
'Cause no matter what you'll never be alone
Never be alone
Never be alone

When it's all said and done you can walk instead of run
'Cause no matter what you'll never be alone

-Compass by Lady Antebellum

This is kind of my symbolic, "I'm back, bitches!" drawing. For those of you who follow me here on FA, I recently had a mental breakdown, had to admit that I needed serious help, and had to lower my pride and go get it. It was hard to do, but things would have been a lot harder had I not had friends who are more like family to me.

So, to , , and , you guys don't know what you've done for me and what exactly you are to me as people. Thank you so much for what you did for me in my time of need. I hope this drawing shows how each of you guided me in your own way and reminded me that for every problem, every heartache, there is a way out.

And yes, I know the needle is "missing" on the compass. It's supposed to be. Sometimes you don't know what direction you need to go in first, but it's good to know the way to get there when you do decide where it is you need to go.

To the rest of you, thank you so much for caring. I can't tell you how much it really did mean. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
