If I Was a Soul Reader

If I was a soul reader, I'd cast a net to the sea and light up this hurting world with phosphorous anemones. If I was a soul reader, I'd know which ones were sick. I wouldn't use a thermometer though, I'd use my soul meter stick. If I was a soul reader, I'd bring their dark to light, I'd search the hearts of all man kind and offer them insight. If I was a soul reader I'd make people glow. They'd light up each night, like lightening bugs you know. If I was a soul reader, I'd dare not stop to rest. I'd be working day and night to clean up all this mess.
