this song has some coming of age metaphors and stuff

lyrics

where are you going?
intrepid young stranger
the path that you go down
is covered in mud

the journey is long
and despite all the danger
the thrill of adventure
it burns in your blood

I come seeking answers
to questions I've pondered
My mind it is filled up
with shadows of doubt

the riddles of ages
the paths that we've wandered
the end of the rainbow
the easy way out

ohh got a long way to go

the answers you're needing
can never be bartered
the lessons we're given
can only be learned

and though long have i lived
and oft have i faltered
i never would undo
the pages i've turned

ohh got a long way to go

and as you move onward
toward your destination
you will not discover
the meaning of life

you musn't surrender
to fear and frustration
you cannot lose hope
to the perilous strife

ohh got a long way to go
