Jubila (Turning The Pages) by 53 Fragments published on 2015-04-04T13:52:39Z Composition by Stephen Karn - for the project 53 Fragments (Part 3) / early adulthood & middle-age: http://53fragments.com The lyrics: Jubila (Turning The Pages) Well I went to the river, and drank it dry I still don’t know all the answers - and I'm asking why.. ..and where and who do I think I am In my middle ages I’m a wolf not a lamb Got a wife and kids, got a house and a car Got a job with a salary - (doesn’t go far) Now my hair is silver like an arctic fox Got to get my fix of the latest box-set I’m working my way, through my middle ages And I keep on turning - turning the pages Like a medieval manuscript, a story unfolds Unlike me the protagonists never get old Like a monk with a habit I continue to pray To a god I don’t know - on my knees anyway I can see to the future, I can see through the past Need to stop for a minute - things are moving too fast Got a life behind me, got a life ahead Got a few things to do before I get dead I’m working my way, through my middle ages I just keep on turning - turning the pages Genre Poetry
