You abdicate You rearrange The weight that you've put on yourself Your shoulders Are sore, sir Done for as far as you can tell Oh oh, oh oh I love you, I don't love this Oh oh, oh oh The senselessness I'm sensing You are not the road you are the Traveller This is not your story it's a chapter So go pretend you know yourself Well enough to answer Will you be the road or be the Traveller? Or be the Traveller You left home You're Santiago Like pages of a novel that you read You're older It's over You walk for miles, you don't know where you went Oh oh, oh oh Solitude is spoiled by loneliness Oh oh, oh oh Again, again, again, again You are not the road you are the Traveller This is not your story it's a chapter So go pretend you know yourself Well enough to answer Will you be the road or be the Traveller? I hope you spot the difference Ignorance and innocence Fear and pure unwillingness The darkness and the day I hope I see you face again Traveller, until then Disregard indifference And set out on your own On your own You are not the road you are the Traveller This is not your story it's a chapter So go pretend you know yourself Well enough to answer Will you be the road or be the Traveller?
