Miles On My Mind

I walked barefoot in the dark dank night
lost in my own keen thoughts
Everything was always a test with you

Through the claws of the outstretched figures in the woods
trying so hard to entangle me in their arms
I never did seem to suffice when it came to you and me

The howls surrounding me from all around,
jeering at my blunderous presence
I tried, oh, if you only knew

Finally, I see a light in the distance,
how long have I been walking?
Freedom.
