237 - The Traveler

Outcast by my family
I'm setting out on my own
Looking for a place to settle
A place I can call home

I'm walking out with nothing
But the clothes upon on my back
In too much of a hurry
There's no time for me to pack

I alone define the rules for my life

I will stand behind convictions of mine

I am the traveler

Wandering through endless fields
Traversing sand and gravel
Many spots I come across
On this road I travel

The day begins to fade away
Relinquishing to night
I stop to rest my weary bones
I'll pick up at first light

I alone define the rules for my life

I will stand behind convictions of mine

I am the traveler

In another place I stop
My needs I do betray
Befriend no one; make no ties
I do not plan to stay

Never shall my journey end
There's no home for me
I call upon my patron saint
Forever keep me free

I alone define the rules for my life

I will stand behind convictions of mine

I am the traveler
