Good or Bad?

We are encouraged to be 'good people'
Until we try, then we're 'not good enough'.

We see these people in the press,
Who're all good and zero sin.

And all the rest who're either
Purely bad or recovered from it.

Society says we should learn from the entirely evil,
And aspire to be entirely good.

What is life without its mistakes?
How're we human without sin?

How can we indulge without temptation?
What is 'good' when there are no lines to cross?

Like those skinny models in the magazines,
And the 'one ton people' on TV,
There is a huge difference in what is realistic,
And what people want you to be.
Life is the crossroads in which you stand,
Good and Bad are the routes you wish to take.
