Pining For Purpose

A small look into the psyche of Dipper Pines, main character of the Disney show "Gravity Falls"

Your uncle is not what he seems
A one-eyed demon haunts your dreams
You thought summer would be a bore
But now you constantly want more
You want to have and know it all
So, welcome to Gravity Falls

Mysteries and secret codes
Collect them ‘til your head explodes
Who wrote the books? What’s Cipher’s plan?
And what is up with Grunkle Stan?
Who can you trust and who is fake?
And how high are the actual stakes?

Your sister doesn’t get it, am I right?
Just doesn’t understand, just doesn’t see the light
The redhead did reject you, ha! So much for love
But does that matter? Your higher calling from above
That’s what counts, you’ll show them, yes, you will
How far do you dare to go? Would you fight and hurt and…?

You never know who’s on your side, always so alone
You just can’t trust anyone, not even your clones!
You’re the only one that matters, the only one that cares
The only one who can sort out this town’s eldritch affairs
You are the hero of this story, are you not?
You’re not just a simple pawn in someone else’s plot

You will show them all, you will make them see
You will be respected, I promise that, Pine Tree
