In the circle of life
it’s the wheel of fortune
it’s the leap of faith

‘til we find our place
on the path unwinding
in the circle…, circle of life

and some of us soar to the skies
and some of us sail through our troubles
and some have to live with the scars

I can’t be the only one who falls “by the wayside”, who has “to live with the scars”; whose emotional element overpowers reason; for whom the primal void inside – after having achieved its completion – is emptied with brute force again, only, this time, while you are conscious of the pain. So, I ask: How, then, do you remain in “the band of hope”?
