Guilty of Innocence

He comes home every day with a tear on his cheek
Why do they have to be so mean
He doesn't want to do drugs he doesn't want to be bad
He doesn't want to drink no matter what any one says
He sits and watches kids he thought were his friends
Give into pressures and become just like them

Chorus He's guilty of innocence that is his crime
It doesn't make any sense but we live in a time
When children are ridiculed for doin what's right
Cause people don't think it's cool to be Christ like
Guilty of innocence

She's crying on her pillow can't believe what he just said
The boy she thought was in love with her never wants to see her again
She realizes it couldn't have been love
Cause he left her for the one thing she wouldn't give up
And she asks God "help me with this burden I bare
And send me a good boy if there's any left out there"

She's guilty of innocence that is her crime
It doesn't make any sense but we live in a time
When children are ridiculed for doin what's right
Cause people don't think it's cool to be Christ like
Guilty of innocence

It may be hard to live a good life
But this is the way that I feel inside

I'd rather be guilty of innocence than caught up in the lies
To me it makes perfect sense to have God on my side
And let them all ridicule it won't change my mind
I can't believe that any of you would pass up eternal life
Guilty of innocence
