Bread Alone

Got to leave town and get away
These faces don’t look the same
It’s a risk I’m taking
But he who risks nothing has nothing
Got to unfurl my sails and catch the wind
These voices don’t sound the same
It’s a risk I’m taking
But I can’t live on bread alone
I don’t want to waste my time
I don’t want to let it pass
I don’t want to miss this turn
That’ll take me home
I’ve watched a hundred moons wax and wane
But attempts to connect have been in vain
Old friends have fallen by the wayside
And a faithful friend is hard to find
It’s a risk I’m taking
But I can’t live on bread alone
