1
Half the world concerned with a slightly tarnished masterpiece
2
Hoping to return as the once forgotten culture thief
3
Lying on its side, the stately vessel now replete
4
With harbingers of peace, telling lies
5
Waiting at the door with a stance secure in second thoughts
6
Overlooking signs of the spiritual bereavement's cost
7
Trying to arrive at a destination that they've lost
8
To ignorance which winks at them and smiles
9
Listen well
10
The patience of the people soon will end
11
Time will tell
12
As the melting of your plastic smile begins
13
Sailing ships of state and ignoring navigation laws
14
Through the sea of man, the captains mad with power pause
15
And congratulate themselves on the virtuous and noble cause
16
Which must surely save the world and alter time
