riding the vessel

a man is a vessel
stopping at ports at sea
picking up, dropping off
destination not enough

if you jumped aboard a plane
would it ever land
would you care where
if destinations are not your plan

useful vessel, pretty vessel
never understand
why you would go somewhere
without a greater plan

not here to dream
not here to wait for heaven
somewhere out there
is a page to tear

picking up pace
running through the forest
about to miss a plane
to shoot you to your fame

back to the plan
where are you going
house, car or cave
or straight to the grave

load me up
send me high
immortal soul
or lifeless ghoul

missed the plane
missed the plan
back on the ship
enjoying the trip
