Fare Thee Well

FARE THEE WELL

Here's my letter:
Dear John of sorts,
An explanation of my change of course:
Maybe you'll join me, maybe you won't.

the mass mind, guided by few,
an original thought is well overdue,
but the program runs thick and I... I want it out of me.

I stayed in line.
I kept my head low.
I looked straight ahead.
I bought what they sold.
I went to church...
so I wouldn't burn for eternity.

I know it's risky, they'll call me a fool,
but I'm tired of living somebody else's rules.
I've been molded & specialized without awareness.

I've missed out on so much already.
A Lifetime of programmed response...
A lifetime of programmed thought...
It's just not my essence.

So tell them all, "Fare thee well"
I love them deeply, but I'm off this trail.
I don't wanna get by, I wanna live like the me that I am.

So tell them all, "Fare thee well"
I've loved them deeply, I'm off this trail.
So tell them all, "Fare thee well"
