Song information
From the end of 2006.

The is last song I ever recorded in Garage Band 6, before switching to LogicExpress 7,
which would be my DAW of choice till my Mac G-5 crashed and burned in late 2011.
(Since purchasing a new Mac in 2017 I've done all my recording in Logic Pro X.)

It's a kind of emotional auto-biography.

Remastered for this posting.

Be well all!

Lyrics
VAGABOND

I
I am a vagabond,
sent here to scour the wide world o'er;
wandering in search of
LOVE;
---not a long and cold syringe,
---no scalpel in skilled surgeon's hands.
I seek a warm embrace,
and a reassuring smile...

II
I wander your cities...
so many children without means!
I offer my empty hands;
---not a pius platitude,
---no ideology of fools.
They need a parent's love,
in place of all the lies that 
they see through.
I am mystified!
Should I have stayed behind the veil?
I have had my fill
of all your crosses and your nails!

III
No exit!
No scapegoat!
No best laid plans of mice or men!
No solvent
will cleanse the blood from off of our hands,
if we choose to turn away;
and do nothing,
as the long dark night falls upon our day...

IV
I have seen so much pain.
Could fill the space between the stars!
My scarred soul, it trembles!
Soon
I'll fly from this place!
My bags are packed... ready to go;
but I will carry this sorrow
wherever I do roam.
Is there something I must learn?
I mustn't falter... mustn't fail...
I'm a vagabond;
---a victim for your crosses and your nails!
