The date is unknown
What is known
Is the effect it had
On the world at large
When the fateful day
When Eve and Adam
Gave their innocence away
If you really think about it
The fall of man
Was inevitable from the start
Part of the bigger plan
For salvation on the Earth
If they had not fallen
We could surely not have been saved
They would have stayed innocent
Not being able to procreate
And to be able to procreate
And to populate the Earth
They also would have stayed immortal
Death would not have touched their lips
There would have been no need for salvation
Evolution would have stopped
Dead in its tracks
Stuck cold in an evolutionary draw
With nothing ever happening at all
But it was because of this fall
That we were able to die
So that way we could truly live
And live and procreate upon the Earth
And for better or for worst
We have moved along
Procreating and evolving
Moving closer to the day of reckoning
When our salvation
Shall be
Complete
