Innocence Maintained - Lyrics by A-Teens


Lyrics
Ophelia drowned in the water

Crushed by her own weight 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 Novocain

His heart a bitter beat inside a bloodless frame

There was a hole inside his soul a manicure could not fill

So he fund himself a whore to love while daisies choked in the window sill

We've made houses for hatred

It's time we made a place
Where people's souls may be seen and made safe

Be careful with each other

These fragile flames

For innocence can't be lost

It just needs to be maintained
A small town in Ohio

Two boys are filled with violence

And darkness spreads its legs for hate and ignorance

We are given to a god to put our faith therein

But to be forgiven, we must first believe in sin

We've made houses for hatred

It's time we made a place

Where people's souls may be seen and made safe

Be careful with eachother

These fragile flames

For without fear
I want always to feel the wings of grace near

We all will be Christed wen we hear ourselves say

We are that which we pray

We've made houses for hatred

It's time we made a place

Where people's souls maybe seen and made safe

Be careful with each other

These fragile flames

We've built houses for hatred

It's time we made a place
Where people's souls may be seen and made safe

Be careful with each other

These fragile flames

For innocence can't be lost

It just needs to be maintained
