I am a weary traveler, yet I fatigue from sitting still I've been on this trail, seeking medicine for my disease Not sure if I'm still alive, or merely ill I am lukewarm water, yet I burn from the cold inside I stop at every impasse, pushing rocks out of my way And wondering if my legs are broken, or if they overstride I am a rudderless vessel, paying no mind to signs As I drift from place to place, from dream to dream Retreating from this world without a finish line I am a weary traveler, yet I fatigue from sitting still I've been on this trail, seeking medicine for my disease Still not sure if I'm alive, or merely ill

Weary Traveler
I am a weary traveler, yet I fatigue from sitting still I've been on this trail, seeking medicine for my disease Not sure if I'm still alive, or merely ill I am lukewarm water, yet I burn from the cold inside I stop at every impasse, pushing rocks out of my way And wondering if my legs are broken, or if they overstride I am a rudderless vessel, paying no mind to signs As I drift from place to place, from dream to dream Retreating from this world without a finish line I am a weary traveler, yet I fatigue from sitting still I've been on this trail, seeking medicine for my disease Still not sure if I'm alive, or merely ill
