If There Was Just One Thing I Could Change The Decline And Fall of Man
Metamorphosis of Man
If there was only one wish
That I was allowed,
It would be to go back
In time, to the origins of man,
To remove the gene,
That nurtures Man's hate
And journey as one,
Through our own pearly gates ,
If there was only one wish
That I was allowed,
I would summon the heavens
Transcending the clouds,
And I would replace this life,
For one not yet not known
With a blanket of love ,
With a dome covered shroud .
If there was only one wish
That I was allowed,
I would be the mind
And the heart that
Only shone light,
I would be the cradle,
That rocks our world to sleep,
I would be the eyes and ears
Of listened foresight.
I would happily surrender,
Everything I now own,
And watch my world
turn from crystal to sand.
I would wait for a sign.
For time to reset.
But if I could change one thing,
It would be,
The Decline and Fall of Man.
