The mind is a turning, it never takes rest
Is testing, is probing, with knowledge as quest
The mind is a searching through land and through sky
Is asking, is digging, it wants to know why
It’s building sand castles, it’s chasing illusions
Is seeking the meaning of life
In dreams finds its haven, because in its journey
It finds only struggle and strife
The heart is a ticking, all night and all day
It’s marking our journey, it’s charting our way
The heart is a beating the rhythm of being
It gives us the notes, the lyrics to sing
It’s calling, it’s pleading, it’s crying, it’s bleeding
It clashes with reason and mind
It’s waiting, it’s hoping, it never surrenders
For love it is pining, but love cannot find
The soul is a glowing, its light is a friend
It gives us the wisdom, let’s us understand
It shines on the darkness, uncovers the veil
Exposes our secrets, it heals when we fail
It searches for meaning though often in vain
It yearns for the touch of a healing caress
It’s glowing together, it withers alone
It’s craving connections, but finds loneliness
Life is a flowing through mountain and vale
It chases the wind, the oceans will sail
It does not falter if hard is the trek
It still keeps on going, it never looks back
It tramples our feelings, it crushes our dreams
It knows not what’s just and what’s fair
Life is a flowing, for time doesn’t care
It’s going, it’s going, but leading nowhere
