Oh how lonely is the road.

With every footstep I seem to slow.

Even thought I have killed my mighty foe.

But my heart is lonely as I sleep.

And into my bones it does seep.

My accomplishments mean nothing here.

Nor the the bravery that is gone, I fear.

My feet are weary,

The roadside is dreary.

I wonder is I am still alive.

I wonder when I will arrive.

People pass me.

Their faces say they want to flee.

Maybe from fire or storm,

Something has made their hearts deform.

I walk alone, I walk in peace.

I walk where people's lives do cease.

I feel alone.

Weary to the bone.

As I walk this deep and lonely road.
