Innocence Takes A Toll
A lover sparks a desolate heart
To stir and flourish and glow
A lover breaks a heart for sport
Leaving a desert where no love can grow
An analyst eases an anguished mind
A priest comforts a trusting soul
A doctor heals an ailing body
Each a lauded goal
An analyst twists an anguished mind
A priest mars a trusting soul
A doctor molests an ailing body
Innocence takes a toll
