Age Of Innocence

Murray, Harris [6:10]
Lu 1663 fois
I can't be compromising
In my throughts no more
I can't prevent the times
My anger fills my heart
I can't be sympathising
With a new lost cause
I feel I've lost my patience
With the world and all

And all the politicians
And their hollow promises
And all the lies, deceit
And shame that goes with it
The working man pays everything
For their mistakes
And with his life too
If there was to be a war

So we only get one chance,
Can we take it
And we only got one life,
Can't exchange it
Can we hold on to what we have,
Don't replace it
The age of innocence is fading...
Like an old dream

A life of petty crime gets punished
With a holiday
The victim's minds are scarred for life
Most everyday
Assailants know just how much further
They can go
They know the laws are soft,
Conviction chances low

So we only get one chance,
Can we take it
And we only got one life,
Can't exchange it
Can we hold on to what we have,
Don't replace it
The age of innocence is fading...
Like an old dream

You can't protect yourselves
Even in your own home
For fear of vigilante cries
The victims wipe their eyes
So now the criminals
They laugh right in our face
Judicial system lets them do it,
A disgrace

Despondent public
Worries where it all will end
We can't protect ourselves
Our kids from crime the trend

We cannot warn each other
Of evil in our midst
They have more rights than us,
You cannot call that just

So we only get one chance,
Can we take it
And we only got one life,
Can't exchange it
Can we hold on to what we have,
Don't replace it
The age of innocence is fading...
Like an old dream

The age of innocence is fading...
Like an old dream
