Innocence

Deborah Blando

The sky hides what I wanna see
Stars are like eyes, they're watching the dark
Passion and fear run all over me
Night is a ghost accusing my heart
This life can be such a lonely place
I hear the laughter as I fall from grace
I fall from grace now I am branded
With original sin, world without end

Who's gonna fight for innocence
When we're always
Denying the proof?
Who's gonna fight for justice
When we wash our hands of truth?

Like to go back to a simple life
Be as child in the promised land
Wish I could sleep when night comes over me
Dreaming of flowers falling out of my hands
But I'm woken by the cries of an angry crowd
Against a man whose love could save me now
Save me now, I'll drink the blood
From your crown of pain, and they'll call us insane

Who's gonna fight for innocence
When we're always
Denying the proof?
Who's gonna fight for justice
When we wash our hands of truth?
