Time 

Maybe we can reverse it
Maybe there is a way 
Perhaps unwinding ravages
Will save the world from grey 

Hit pause just for a moment
Check where we are right now
And tell me that it doesn't cause
A deeply furrowed  brow 

Where is that super human 
To reverse the fatal spin?
Or the bat-shaped cloudy lantern
To erase the Joker's grin?

Truth is, this isn't funny
Truth is, we're in a spot
And our hearts are getting colder
While the Garden's getting hot 

The polar bears are floating
On the land they used to roam.
The animals adapting to
Their temperamental home 

The sky is flashing wildly. 
The rain. The wind. The snow.
Are proclaiming rather loudly
They think it's time for us to go

The leaders are conferring
No-one now denies 
That the Eden we once tended 
Is corrupted by the lies

And the scientists and dreamers
Looking far towards the stars 
Have they given up on healing 
Now the open wounds form scars? 

Can't we save our piece of heaven?
Let our navel gazing stop
Lifting eyes towards the future here
Not some lonely Martian rock 

I want to be more hopeful
I need to feel the love
We need the rainbow promise
More than ever, from above 

I want to sing a new song
Hear the birds and smell the rain
Be the heroes who can navigate
This treacherous terrain  

So the minstrel turned to prophet
Whispered warnings in his rhyme
For the very thing to pray for
And the thing we need.. is time
