Sos

Is anyone out there?
Message transmission is scrambled.
I really need help right now.
Ozone layer is fading,
Waters are polluted,
Wars are destroying cities,
Religions are dividing people.

When I came down here,
I didn't mean to make my life
complicated with rules and knowledge
are encyclopedic in nature;
I just wanted to change the world a bit,
only to change myself to something
I never wanted to be.

Is anyone out there?
I'm trying to interpret possible signals
from your radio.
A helping hand is really meaningful
for me right now;
take me to a world I always dream about -
take me to my new home.....
