The Boy on the Road

So I found my way through this 40 year long day

So I found my way and I'm on the road again

With with naked feet, a naked soul

I have so much to say, but nowhere to go

I have nothing to teach, but I've learned enough

From feeling my life pass by always out of touch

So I found my way and I swear I don't know what

To say to the boy who looks in the mirror

I've reached for so much and failed

I never let go of this growing weight in my chest

I really thought this walk was meant

To make any sense, but to make me small

I really thought being a man wouldn't feel like

A boy with missing thoughts, with missing time

Stuck on the road again, I just know how to walk

And if it's the sense of life, well, I did my part

It takes so much from me, eats me from the heart

But I still know how to dream

I still know a boy who never learned to give up

Running with a dusty heart in his hands

Trying hard to show life he is never scared

And as long as he's still there

He will never leave the road

Because that's the boy that I know
