Elevator

I can't change the past for no one has found the rewind button yet.

I can't take back my pain or catch myself from falling again.

For the net to catch myself before isn't there,



But I can change what I fall into and what button I press.

For the press of one button can change everything.



So lets see what the up button will do.

I may get stuck for a while or fall to the floor due to a sudden stop,

But this time the button is up and I will be falling into a net of hope.
