I’ve lived thru the ages
I’ve seen it all before
Its been told before in the word of sages
I just don’t trust those anymore.

In the loneliness of the winter night and
Mercilessness of icy breeze
I trudge along the winding trail
In the darkness of forests and trees.

I've seen the girl with hungry eyes
Little kids doing dope
The homeless curled up in cardboard
Trembling and bereft of hope.

The trumpets rang out loud and clear
Thy kingdom was to come
The hungry wept in their wretchedness
And I knew thine wasn’t done.

So I learnt to live in wisdom
To accept life that I couldn’t mould
And I hope the ghosts of my memories
Won’t haunt me as I grow old.
