This dry grass clings to my clothes

Branches scrape at my skin

Keep moving forward

Towards what end?

Golden hills roll on forever

One after another

Every time I look up

Golden hills is all I discover

What did I expect to find?

The truth that lies on the other side

Push forward without a map

Look to the stars with the sun on my back

North or not there’s no going back

I left the path

I left the past

Out here I have no home

Out here I am all alone

Out here I am my own

Who can tell me what I’ve known?
