When the Oldest Person Alive Was Born

That instant you breathed, in that one little moment, You were the youngest on Earth, Because everyone else, all over the world, Had already been given a birth, And if you were to live to be oldest around, Where you were the oldest alive, Then you were born, with a different set of humans, And you’re the only one to survive. You would have been in a world with a complete population, Different to who they are now, You would have been alive in a world we don’t know, Where milk came straight from a cow. And everyone alive, to see you get born, Would’ve dreamt of the things you now know, You’d be the only person around, to live in both worlds, To see all our lives come and go.
