This journey I walk alone.
No mate to hold hand
No friend to give solace
I travel to unknown land.
Harsh terrains to cross
At times I stumble
At times I fall
Hearing menacing rumbles.
Those lands fair or vile
There's none to predict
I'll know in a while
Palace grand or ruin derelict.
A winding one way street
Not drive down highway lanes
Unchartered mountain range
Not stroll on verdant plane.
And when the journey's done
When I've reached a new home
Will light on life prevail
Will I walk into my tomb?
No mate to hold hand
No friend to give solace
I travel to unknown land.
Harsh terrains to cross
At times I stumble
At times I fall
Hearing menacing rumbles.
Those lands fair or vile
There's none to predict
I'll know in a while
Palace grand or ruin derelict.
A winding one way street
Not drive down highway lanes
Unchartered mountain range
Not stroll on verdant plane.
And when the journey's done
When I've reached a new home
Will light on life prevail
Will I walk into my tomb?
