I Must Walk Alone (lyrics)

The faith in your heart
Was beautiful and pure.
It moved me
Into wanting to know more.
Then you fooled me
Into walking with you.
The you schooled me
You taught me how to live and what to do.

But now I must walk alone.
There are things I must find out on my own.
And if you stand beside me,
You know I'll be grateful to you.
And if you leave me stranded,
You know I'll still do what I need to do.

I'm trying to find out who I am.
I'm trying to find my own way to stand.

I tried on
Religion and philosophy.
I tried on everything and everyone but me.
I was repressing
To satisfy and play a role
Then I started digressing
From the hot poker in my soul.

But now I must walk alone.
There's things I need to find out on my own.
And if you stand beside me,
You know I'll be grateful to you.
I hate to have to leave you,
But still I must do what I need to do.

I'm trying to find out who I am.
I'm trying to find my own way to stand.
