Contamination

I've been staring out the window
thinking I'll see a different view
from what's really there
from what's really contaminating our thoughts

People lie, cheat, and steal
our world seems to be falling apart
but sometimes we look past all that
forgive them in our hearts

But what if a crime was done
and it hurt everyone?
would you still forgive and forget?
Or make the mistake regret.

As much as I thought it was possible,
i cant change the world
even if i tried little by little
the impact wouldn't do a thing.

Our world is contaminated
with false hopes and broken dreams
sometimes it makes no sense,
but as a challenge.. try to go on.
