Innocence Maintained |
| Ophelia drowned in the water |
| Crushed by her own weight |
| And Hitler loved little blue-eyed boys |
| And it drove him to hate |
| Birds always grow silent before the night descends |
| Cause nature has a funny way of breaking what does not bend |
| A hero’s torso built of steel and novicane |
| His heart a bitter beat inside a bloodless frame |
| There was a hole inside his soul |
| A manicure could not fill |
| So he found himself a whore to love |
| While daisies choked on the windowsill |
| We’ve made houses for hatred |
| It’s time we make a place where |
| People’s souls may be seen and made safe |
| Be careful with each other these fragile flames |
| Innocence can’t be lost it just needs to be maintained |
| A small town in Ohio, 2 boys are filled with violence |
| As night in the darkness spreads it’s legs for hate and ignorance |
| We are given to a god to put his faith therein |
| But to be forgiven we must first believe in sin |
| We’ve made houses for hatred |
| It’s time we make a place where |
| People’s souls may be seen and made safe |
| Be careful with each other these fragile flames |
| Innocence can’t be lost it just needs to be maintained |
| I want to live bravely and love without fear |
| I want to always feel the wings of Grace near |
| We all will be Christed when we hear ourselves say |
| We are that to which we pray |
| We’ve made houses for hatred |
| It’s time we make a place where |
| People’s souls may be seen and made safe |
| Be careful with each other these fragile flames |
| Innocence can’t be lost it just needs to be maintained |
