Travelling Alone Songtext

Travelling Alone Songtext
When I was questioned
I shook my head and stared
I was traveling alone
And had nothing to declare
He asked how I knew for sure
And would I tell everyone I knew
If it would hurt
To know the truth
I can be thankful to be alive
But I despise this life
In all my years, at best
Have only learned just to survive
But when I look around you
I understand why you believe
I see your evidence of God
All around me
You have so therefore you are
But I have not
You′ve seen the evidence of God
But I have not, and I have none
I shook my head and laughed
I never had a taste for life
And I felt there was no turning back
Would I try to take away their hope?
Replace it with reality
Exchange their joy with my bleak view
And leave them miserable like me
I have searched and I have tried
To find a place where I can be
I love my homeland dearly
But never carved a place in society
But when I look around you
I understand why you believe
I see your evidence of God
All around me
You have so therefore you are
But I have not
You are too rich for hate
And I'm too poor to love
When I asked him
He shook his head and stared
I see no evidence of God
In the men from the west
I shook my head and stared
I was traveling alone
And had nothing to declare
He asked how I knew for sure
And would I tell everyone I knew
If it would hurt
To know the truth
I can be thankful to be alive
But I despise this life
In all my years, at best
Have only learned just to survive
But when I look around you
I understand why you believe
I see your evidence of God
All around me
You have so therefore you are
But I have not
You′ve seen the evidence of God
But I have not, and I have none
I shook my head and laughed
I never had a taste for life
And I felt there was no turning back
Would I try to take away their hope?
Replace it with reality
Exchange their joy with my bleak view
And leave them miserable like me
I have searched and I have tried
To find a place where I can be
I love my homeland dearly
But never carved a place in society
But when I look around you
I understand why you believe
I see your evidence of God
All around me
You have so therefore you are
But I have not
You are too rich for hate
And I'm too poor to love
When I asked him
He shook his head and stared
I see no evidence of God
In the men from the west
