They cry in the dark
So you can't
See their tears
They hide in the light
So you can't
See their fears
Forgive and forget
All the while
Love and pain
Become one
And the same
In the eyes of a
Wounded child
Because ****
**** is for children
And you know that their
Little lives can become
Such a mess
**** **** is for children
And you shouldn't
Have to pay for your love
With your bones
And your flesh
It's oh so confusing
This brutal abusing
They blacken your eyes
And then apologize
You're daddy's good girl
And don't tell mommy
A thing
Be a good little boy
And you'll get a new toy
Tell grandma you fell
Off the swing
Because ****
**** is for children
And you know that their
Little lives can become
Such a mess
**** **** is for children
And you shouldn't have
To pay for your love
With your bones
And your flesh
No **** is for children
**** **** is for ****
**** is for ****
**** is for children
**** **** is for ****
**** is for ****
**** is for children
**** **** is for ****
**** is for ****
**** is for children
**** is for children
**** is for children
