It is going to be a long ride, I was told Before the first foot was placed, Left or right, I don't remember, It never mattered, it was I who was alone! Solitary ranger, how long till your legs rest? How long till you pass the test? Where is it that you go? I don't know! The map? I lost when they blindfolded me! Blindfolded? Ay! Why? There are guides! "Trust", they said! The process is one you Should trust! Trust is one hard word, Trust, you see, is the only option! Fret not! The guides will lead you along, But the walk is yours, little man! Someone to accompany? That was not In the contract. But, when did I ever sign? Eat the fruit once every night! It will make sure you'll keep up, Every people you see on the way, Are taverns, but not company to take! Will it ever end, for I want to be home, Home is where my mind finds peace, Home is where my friends will be, If I go back, will I be home? Which way is back, how should I know? And negative, that wasn't home. Home is where this treck will take you! Weary traveller, there's so much to go!
