Rivers - New Model Army

And so I came to this dream-like place

But I can’t remember how

Our lives just break open in front of us

Like pack ice before the bow

I followed rivers, I followed orders

I followed prophets, I followed leaders

I followed rivers, I followed highways

I followed conscience, I followed dreamers

And I’m back here, and I’m back here

At the edge of the sky

And so I came to this dream-like place

But I can’t remember why

I was never quite ready for what came my way

But I was always ready to die

I followed rivers, I followed orders

I followed prophets, I followed leaders

I followed rivers, I followed highways

I followed conscience, I followed dreamers

And I’m back here, and I’m back here

At the edge of the sky

I sowed the seeds — I sowed the seeds

I followed rivers, I followed orders

I followed prophets, I followed leaders

I followed rivers, I followed highways

I followed conscience, I followed dreamers

And I’m nearly there, I’m nearly there
