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
