Analysis of Journey of life
Life's been good to me
Blind eyes will never see
Wisdom comes from the soul
Most knowledge is seldom told
Life's secrets we rarely find
Forgotten mysteries lost in time
So rarely do we understand
Answers of this ancient land
Expand the boundries of eternity
Emotions of love and ecstacy
Life's not as it seems
Know not what it means
I am just a man
Doing the best I can
Death is never far behind
Captured only by ones mind
Death neither enemy or friend
Life always has an end
Faster than a twinkled eye
How too soon we all must die
