What If I Told You...


What if I told you the world didn't go round,
And that both of your feet are not on the ground.
Would you feel helpless and scared floating around in space,
Or would you bark out a laugh and spit in my face.
 
What if I told you
 
Your eyes ares so blind they can't even see,
The vastness that everything is and can be.
 
What if I told you
 
What if I told you your voice was so faint,
No matter how loud you yell, it would carry no weight.
Some might listen to you, or nod and agree,
But your words will only be lost in black sea.
 
What if I told you
 
These words are all true, 
Not just for you,
But for all of us too.
