What Would You Do?

...
Just close your eyes and count to ten
Go back to when
The sword actually was mightier than the pen
Back before there was a Ben
When boys were boys and youths were men
And then;
Think, if there never was a "you",
If all you knew is everything but true
If all the hearts were drawn in dark blue
If your fantasies were overdue
If the color black was the only hue
If falsity was all you knew
If all your dreams grew wings and flew
If life was nothing but a clue
What would you do?
