What would we build if we had to start it all again from scratch?
Rising from the ashes with a new lease of life, what would we need?
How would you cope if you next meal was something you had to catch?
How many hungry little faces do you think that you could feed?

Have a look around you and count the articles that you could make.
We have built ourselves an impressively complex way of life.
Make sure the next tier up is not too heavy for the one below to take.
The balance is difficult, with the foundations on the edge of a knife.

We are all right for now if we believe what our leaders have to say.
There is no cause for alarm, and no actions that need to be taken.
Despite detailed plans and noble intent, it might happen one day.
And so will mark a new beginning, and a new world will awaken.
