If I Could

If i could,I would
And if i should,why wont?
If i could go back in time
And prevent this crime
If i could invent a technology
That will take me back in time 
Without agony,
I swear it,i wont mind.
Though my actions would hurt,
All the same i would do myself 
And a few others a great favor
Even though many will chase my 
Tail.
I would turn lies to truth
And truth to lies.
If i could,probably many will still 
Be living and not sleeping
But it's sad that i can't change 
Nor stop the speed of time.
If i could,I would
And if i should, I wont.
