• Through the shadows of life I walk,
    Alone, abandoned, forsaken,
    Trying to understand
    My utter desolation.
    Love is now a memory,
    A long forgotten song.
    I look back at life and try to see
    where it was that I went wrong.
    Of course, you know, hindsight
    Is always clear as day.
    And it seems to me that I have chosen
    A very lonely way.
    The road I walk is hard.
    Ahead it looks much worse.
    I'm in a race to reach the end
    Where I don't want to finish first.
    I don't know what scares me more,
    In my imperfect mind;
    The things that lay ahead of me
    Or the things that lay behind.
    So I'll walk a little longer,
    Not slow, yet neither fast.
    I'm not ready for the future
    Though I want to leave the past.
    Through the shadows of life I walk,
    Alone, abandoned, forsaken.
    Will I ever understand
    This road that I have taken?
