THE INNOCENCE
Words & Music by Mickey McBride
Verse 1
WHEN THE INNOCENCE IS GONE,
YOU LOSE SIGHT OF RIGHT AND WRONG,
AND THE EVIL THOUGHT THAT YOUR EYES IMPORT...
TAKES CONTROL OF WHAT GOES ON.....,
Verse 2
WHEN THE DEVIL BUYS YOUR SOUL,
AND YOUR HEART IS BLACK AS COAL,
YOU CAN REST ASSURED THAT THEY'LL ALL BE LURED...
BY THE EVIL YOU EXTOL.....,
Bridge
YOU GET HIGH ALL YOU WANT,
AND YOU LIE, CHEAT, AND STEAL,
HOW YOU TANTALIZE AND TAUNT...
WHEN YOU USE YOUR SEX APPEAL.....,
Verse 3
WHEN THE INNOCENCE IS GONE,
AND YOU KNOW THAT LIFE GOES ON,
WITH YOUR HEART OF STONE, BE A BITCH TO THE BONE,
'CAUSE THE INNOCENCE IS GONE,
(Return to Bridge)
Tag
YEAH, THE INNOCENCE IS GONE.....,
IT'S BEEN GONE FOR MUCH TOO LONG.
