This Old Dirt Road

Teary eyed and wandering down some old dirt road a million thoughts run through my head, an awful heavy load no destination in my mind, just thinking of the past I see the sunset fade away, the days go by so fast The cool breeze blows against my face, my tears fall to the ground so quiet in this far off place, my thoughts the only sound However did things get this way when all I've done is try? My life it seems is so unfair, not understanding why This old dirt road I wander on, I've been on several times familiar in so many ways, i walk between the lines subtle changes here and there, but basically the same revisited so many times, I have to be to blame what could it be that I have done, what and where and when ? i try each time to save myself, yet here i am again a lesson that I should have learned, yet still I fail to see a road I'll always wander on until life changes me I hope that soon I'll figure out what things I have done wrong until that day, along this road, I guess I'll wander on......
