Oh, Time's Illusion


Time Begins to Change
Gaining an Hour
The Clock - Tick Tock
But the days change
Through night and day
Ever quicker than last May
Falling Back in Time
An Hour
Repeating
The False Creation
The Illusion
For the time was there
But the Clocks have created a new existence
By falling back in time
We find ourselves in the cusp of Humanity's Creation
And Nature's Fate
For the Clocks Created Something that Nature did not
Giving time that was never ours to give
So Grant Me this Imaginary Hour
For in the Spring 
Nature Rights this Hour using its Power
And the only semblance of it will come next fall
When the illusion is made anew
