woods of ypres - traveling alone lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
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

[chorus 1]
i can be thankful to be alive but i despise this life
in all my years, at best, i’ve 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

[verse 2]
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?

[chorus 2]
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

[outro]
when i asked him, he shook his head and stared
“i see no evidence of god in the men from the west”
