Wasn't Born to Follow |
Oh, I’d rather go and journey |
Where the diamond crescent’s flowing |
And run across the valley |
Beneath the sacred mountain |
And wander through the forest |
Where the trees have leaves of prisms |
That break the light up into colors |
That no one knows the names of |
And when it’s time, I’ll go and wait |
Beside the legendary fountain |
'Til I see your form reflected |
In its clear and jeweled waters |
And if you think I’m ready |
You may lead me to the chasm |
Where the rivers of our visions |
Flow into one another |
And I’ll stay a while and wonder |
At the mist that they’ve created |
And lose myself within it |
Mends my mind and body |
And I know at that moment |
As I stand in that cathedral |
I will want to die beneath |
The white cascading water |
She may beg and she may plead |
And she may argue with your logic |
And mention all the things I’ll lose |
That really have no value |
Though I doubt that she will ever |
Come to understand my meaning |
In the end, she’ll surely know |
I was not born to follow |
