Catherine, The Monk, Nostradamus
(C) 
If history was mine alone to write 
I'd have it all my way 
An easy game to play 
Where only rules that I made up applied 
Where people and events
Were under my command
If history was mine alone

(M) 
If history was mine alone to change
Knowing what went wrong 
And what could have been done 
To save the order I would rearrange 
The sequence of my dreams
And act behind the scenes 

(N)
If history was mine alone to claim 
An image of the past 
I wouldn't want to last
And show the world within a certain frame
By going back in time 
If history was mine
(C)
If history was mine 
(M) 
If history was mine
If history was mine 

(N) 
The future would mean burden, grief and shame
Determined just by me
And what to choose to see 
If history was mine alone...
