Analysis of I Walk Alone
Here i stand, before a very long and most familiar path.
for its the only path i've ever known.
its clear to me that this is the path i am destined to take.
and i must walk it alone.
on this path there will be no one to walk with. it'll only be me.
not a single person. not a single soul for as far as the eye can see.
i am walking now. down a path where no one will dare to follow.
not a single soul. not even my own shadow.
it is finally clear to me, that i was meant to be alone.
so i'll continue to walk this path. and forever i shal walk alone.
