it's not enough

i barely reach there
to this small town
it is not a modern town
it is not a lively town
it is a beautiful town
with friendly people

i feel great
i want to live here
i feel appreciated
i'm happy to be here
i feel beloved
i'm sure this is my place

but sometimes
there's flood
there's hunger
there's disease
there's unwanted guest
we just cant help it
we cant control the world

we were taught about accepting
we learned about forgiving
we knew about misunderstanding
but we forgot all that
at the moment of anger
at the moment of despair

the street at this town
seems lonely
full with tears
swallowed up by darkness
can it return to how it was?
can it be the place of joy?

i'm not a good person
i'm learning to be one
but i dont want to be hypocrite
i'm learning not to be one
so if i cant be nice
dont expect me to be nice
if i cant forgive you
dont expect a 'sorry' from me
i'm hurt..
