In a World without Me
Impossible, I say
God would have no one to toy with
To play with
To challenge His ways
If I’m never here
Who would question His authority
Inspire the masses
To turn the other cheek
And hand out free passes
Nothing would change
Nothing at all
It would all be the same
Just a little less sane
Just a little less music in the air
Just a little less of me anywhere
From my point of view
I’d be in just a little less pain
A little less poetry full of bane would be written
A little less song would be sung and be smitten
A few less flutes will have been made
A few less new words would be created
Someone’s Grandma will have to cross the street alone
My cat would miss me
No one will be cursing my name
Or be any less off without me in the game
No, nothing would change
Nothing at all
I’m just not that important
Not at all
Ultimately,
I kinda like it that way
