If I could stop the hands of time
If I could stop the hands of time

If I could stop the hands of time
If I could turn them back to the beginning
I would fix it all
I would heal everything
I'd make us a better humanhood
I'd create peace and happiness with Light
I'd promote hope and faith
I'd ensure everything would turn out right
But all of this is wishful
For life is messy and complicated
We're all evolving with growth and changes
We're all adapting to circumstances and Fate
And ultimately what would I achieve
Stopping our souls from these many journeys
Forcing God and His Universe
To expand Heaven and Hell with yearnings
If I could stop the hands of time
I know that it would require great trust
To let them fly free and onwards
Until Death turns us all into dust
For nothing is truly forever
And everything truly is
For we are everything and nothing
We are the reason the Universe exists
Manifesting through us creatures
We mortals, complex and cruel
We sinners and saints and miracles
We, the reason for Karmic rules
For the Universe needs us
Or maybe we just wish it so
Because if we were no longer here
The Universe would still grow
