Would you change yourself?

would you change the world if you could?
would I start over, change my fate?
turn over a new leaf, start with a clean slate?
no i don't think i would. 
 
 would you change the world if you could?
The world is such a fickle thing.
what would the change bring?
if it was love, I'd like to say I should. 
 
would you change the world if you could?
Bring forth all the love, from all the hate.
shove it back and close the gate.
If that is the change - I would.
 
would you change the world if you could?
Take away the dark and face all fear?
but then what would actually be there?
I don't know if I would.
 
Would you change the world if you could?
If all people could be equal to each other
 this change would be another
that I would. 
 
Would you change the world if you could?
Bring back the animals taken by force?
Killed for money with no remorse?
This is a change I would. 
 
Would you change the world if you could?
Help them to feel what is beyond?
Help them to feel loves endless bond?
I know I should.
 
Would you change the world if you could?
the world is changing on its own, 
should i disrupt its natural flow?
I don't know if I would. 
 
would you change the world if you could?
The world is such a fickle thing.
what would the change bring?
if it was love, I'd like to say I would.
