Soft Target

It is easy Doesn't take much effort To convince the innocent they are guilty All it takes are willing cohorts And their concerted efforts To manufacture believable evidence Begin again with original sin Live in poverty but wait for the heavenly Life is another punishment waiting to be happening And you will bend your knee to other gods You will trust in demons And their face of your governance You will believe under the pain of death Such victims are those Who have no choice left It is easy To convince the innocent they are guilty Innocence is as innocence does There has been no respite in the tipping of the scales Punishing the children So the, you are sinful, doctrine always prevails And under the blanket of your sin Such evil laughs at your innocence Disgusting grins as you ask it for deliverance Ah! you soft targets You easy marks You the betrayed in your innocence A dog upon a cross Butterfly in a net A hopeless case of perpetual abuse soft TARGET
