The Wheel
Leslie Fish Lyrics

There's a wheel turning on muddy ground,
The world is in constant motion and change.

Gains an inch every time it goes around.
Every revolution of the wheel brings progress, no matter how small.

Come on, let's make another revolution!
Let's keep moving forward and making progress.

There are wheels that turn through all of our lives,
There are cycles and patterns in life.

And we sometimes see them clear.
We can sometimes recognize these patterns and cycles.

When the night comes down, when the first snow falls,
These patterns and cycles can be marked by significant events such as the passing of seasons.

We can mark the day or the year.
We can make note of these events and the passing of time.

The circle's end we can tell too easy;
The end of these cycles is often more obvious to us than the beginning.

The beginning is hard to see.
It can be difficult to recognize the start of a new cycle or pattern.

And the wheel whose seasons no-one knows
There are certain cycles that cannot be predicted or explained.

Is the turn of the tide that can make us free.
These unpredictable cycles can sometimes lead to positive changes or liberation.

There are wheels that turn in the Natural world,
Natural cycles and patterns also exist.

And there's some in the heart of Man.
Human behavior and emotions can follow certain patterns and cycles.

Your wish moves them, your hand proves them,
Our actions and desires can affect these cycles and patterns.

So turn them the best you can.
We should try to influence these patterns in a positive way.

You can't make it stop, even when you die.
These cycles and patterns will continue beyond our lifetime.

There's a wheel that's moving fast through our time
There is a certain cycle happening rapidly in our present day.

And we've seen the track it made.
We can observe the impact of this cycle on the world around us.

I believe you know where it has to go
We have some sense of where this cycle is leading us.

So night's come down and the turn is hidden,
It can be difficult to see where this cycle is going or what the next phase will bring.

But it never stops rolling 'round.
The cycle only continues and progresses.

So lay on your hand, 'cause we're coming to land.
Let's work together to bring this cycle to a positive conclusion.
