in a word we’ve been let down
so much noise a big debate
the truth it hurts and it will fade
believe in this some other way
a day will come when we are told
we’ll hear the words in stories old
a perfect world
troubled times your worried face
forever changed this human race
sometimes we feel so out of place
we face our truths from choices made
we all move on we can’t rewind
a heavy cloud not silver lined
a perfect world
grab my hand if you can
hold on tight don't be mad
lean on me understand the perfect world
we’re all in this this so called race
why we can’t stay stay in one place
some strong and proud some weak some loud
i look at you and I am proud
and in this world we are the same
yet in this world we’re not the same
it’s such a shame a perfect world
this our time the world we know
the left and right so dark at night
we all get lost along the way
believe in this some other way
although it hurts don't hesitate
imagine what we may create
so much noise let’s turn it down
our perfect world it can’t be found
grab my hand if you can
hold on tight and don’t be mad
lean on me understand the perfect world
