The wins and losses stay behind
As I pull out of town
No more friends to build me up
No foes to tear me down
I'm stuck inside this paradox of hope and disbelief
Wondering if this new life will be the death of me
It's a long road
When you go alone
It's a new road
When you're far from home
And nothing is quite the same
When no one knows your name
It's a long road
When you travel alone
To do this on my own
It's not what I would choose
But I don't have the choice
This road is built for you too
Tell me how I'm supposed to learn
If I stay comfortable
So lock the doors and hide the keys
And leave me in the cold
It's a long road
When you go alone
It's a new road
When you're far from home
And nothing is quite the same
When no one knows your name
It's a long road
When you travel alone
It's a long road
When you go alone
It's a new road
When you're far from home
It's a long road
When you go alone
It's a new road
When you're far from home
And nothing is quite the same
When no one knows your name
It's a long road
When you travel alone
