Innocence Betrayed
They come into this heavy world Eyes wide open with no defense
Looking up for gentle hands Trusting every step and scent They got
no malice in their chest
No deceit upon their tongue
They share our alleys,
walk our floor
Asking nothing,
giving more
Incapable
of cruelty or spite (oh no) How do you break
a heart that loves you blindly in the night?
Curled on concrete, waiting cold Still forgiving every scar
Giving mercy back to hands That never knew how kind they are
Unconditional devotion In a world that turns its eyes
They share our alleys,
walk our floor
Asking nothing,
giving more
Incapable
of cruelty or spite
(yeah) How do you break
a heart that loves you blindly in the night?
(have some mercy)
(oh,
have some mercy)
Born without hate
Born without spite
Be the shelter
