Wasn't Born To Follow

Oh i'd rather go on
journey
where the diamond
crest is glowing and
Run across the valley
beneath the sacred
mountain and
Wander through the
forest
Where the trees have
Leaves of prisms and
break the light in colors
That no one knows the
names of
And when it's time i'll go
and
Wait beside a legendary
fountain
Till i see your form
reflected
in its clear and jeweled
waters
And if you think i'm
ready
You may lead me to
chasm
where the rivers of our
vision
Flow into one another
I will want to die
beneath the white
cascading waters
You may beg, you may
plead, you may argue
with your logic
And then you'll know
the things i learned
That really have no
value
In the end you will
surely know
I wasn't born to follow
