THE WHEEL TURNS

The Wheel Turns

 

Nothing ever changes, the wheel keeps turning,

Nothing new happens on this tired old world.

Everything’s already come to pass before; intrigue’s burning,

And humanity’s still not learning

That a squabble then a war is not the only path.

 

The wheel keeps turning, an Empire stands, it’ll crumble in time,

The ninth Empire; a telling number.

History’s annals will always be caked in the grime,

Of the men and woman who in their prime,

Did nothing but waste away their little lives.

 

The wheel keeps turning. What are we petty men but dust?

We are soon but fading memories, then soon forgotten.

Our minds must be caked in a rotting rust

For we cannot see that we must

Live now because soon we will die.

 

The wheel keeps turning – soon it will stop, for me and you

For we are but candles in the rain

Extinguished in an instant, to be replaced by the new

And there’s nothing you or I can possibly do

But cement our legacy now, before it’s too late.

 

The wheel will not be turning for long, for us.

Soon the wheel shall turn again and leave us behind.

So heed what I say, for I say thus

That we must do what we can now, to be remembered.

 

You must think, write, you must compose,

For a good cause fight, anything I suppose

So long as in a hundred years men will about you say:

‘This man was great, a great man of his day.’
