As if...

If I could change anything

What would I change?

I would change the world

But I think I'm out of range

 

I would change the violence

That knock, knocks on peoples' doors

Maybe that would let kids sleep

Let them dream of dinosaurs

 

I would change the people

Living on the street

Struggling to survive

Being called dead beats

 

I would change many things

Do you not understand?

For I have seen many things

Go out of hand

 

Please understand

Please stand by me

Or will you just watch

Or act as if you're asleep....
