Paroles de Traveling alone

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 in your life, but i have none

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, 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

(when he asked me), 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 am 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"
