Jacob's Dream - Spinning Leaf lyrics

A slave to time as I look back on my life A path that can lead to insanity All the years that I leave behind me All means nothing at the front of the gate I look to the sky I raise my head Pondering the valor of the dead The meaning of life? Who holds the key? Can I fathoms things I cannot see? Born into sorrow, who am I? Lost in the silence of the mystery So many questions How can I see to unlock the paradox? [Chorus:] Life is like a spinning leaf Rise and fall with our valor and grief Life is like a spinning leaf Your world can be broken so easily I question the lies that I've been taught Can't hold onto this frail life I once sought The journey begins I'm searching for light The evidence of truth to give me sight Reborn in fire Flesh mortified Bringing d**h to the agony This life is now but we must look to eternity [Repeat Chorus] Enslaved by my flesh as I search for the truth within myself To see the things that I cannot see I pray for your wisdom and your guidance because I need your knowledge to see I give you my life the one who made me I hold you to my soul [Repeat Chorus]
