This old song won't take long

Just to tell what went wrong

I had to leave my old home

And now I'm walking all alone

You can see me through your eyes

I'm the one that's tellin' lies

You can play your little games

But you cannot change my name

So I'll go where I know

My seeds will sow

If I walk that lonesome road

To the valley of despair

Then I know when I get out

Darkness cannot find me there

And the time that it takes

And the mark that it makes

They will change me just the same

But you cannot change my name

So I'll go where I know

My seeds will sow
