Innocence

Who is innocent? No one is innocent
Who is innocent?
Who is innocent? No one is innocent
Who is innocent?

Who is innocent? Is it relevant in the world today?
I shake my head in disbelief
The killer walks again, freed by evil men in their dark charade
This can't be happening

A mother's selfish pride, her child's homicide, can she be to blame?
The suited vultures circling
A father's cruelty, a murdered family, is the world insane?
Their defenders ready to embrace their lies with their devious smiles

Your corruption is like a cancer growing inside
You owe the world an apology
You've been taught all your life that truth is easy to hide
You'll face your judgment another day and suffer eternally

Who is innocent? No one is innocent
Who is innocent?

Presumed innocent, justice fails again in the masquerade
A battered woman trembling
Her lover drunk again, when will the torture end in her web of shame?
Is death the only way?

A child victimized, the crime politicized for the counselor's gain
The rabid media congregates
His tortured memories, a pervert's fantasies, is the world insane?
The parasitic devastation seen on your TV screen

Your corruption is like a cancer growing inside
You owe the world an apology
You've been taught all your life that truth is easy to hide
You'll face your judgment another day and suffer eternally

False defender, burn forever
False defender, burn forever
Cold and spineless, have you no soul?
Wicked minded, out of control and guided
By their hunger they will find new ways to betray us

Your corruption is like a cancer growing inside
You owe the world an apology
You've been taught all your life that truth is easy to hide
You'll face your judgment another day and suffer eternally

Who is innocent? Is it relevant in the world today?
I shake my head in disbelief
Presumed innocent, justice fails again in the masquerade
Has the whole world become insane?
