The Road - Original Song
Hi everyone, here's my new original! This song means a lot to me, so I hope you all like it. It was heavily influenced by one of Bob Dylan's earliest songs, can anyone guess which one?

Lyrics:
Don't know where I'm going, just followin' this road
I'm tired and I'm scared and my pace has slowed
Stuck here at dusk with my strings and my harp
Tryin' to sing on, but evening's gone dark
Don't think it's the end, but I don't know what to do
Dirt roads bend to highways, old chords won't sing true
It's easy to live and too easy to lie
Got to be a way t' ring the doubt out of mind
So I'm looking to the strums and the hums and the rugged beats
And the echoes of boots tapping down the streets
Lookin' to the rhymes and the tell-all lines
That ring through the wind and travel in time
I'm holding to the past and I want to take it slow
Want to go back, to where it feels like home
And way out up ahead, I can see a new road
Willing me t' get on, get on and grab hold
Well, now I know where I'm going, what song I'll be a-singing
And my feet'll be tapping, my ears'll be ringing
And the one thing I'll do, t' stay true on this road
Is t' sing anew, singin' all that's been told
