Innocent Man

Too many times the clouds in the sky turn to grey

You've been there before

You've opened that door

Now you've been blamed

Swear on your life since you've been alive

You'd never walk that road

Misunderstood won't do any good

You're on your own

What's in their eyes is black and white

And in your mind you know what's right

Thrown in a world you're forced to live

With no one to lend you a hand

Down in a hole that won't forgive

Now only God understands

You're an innocent man

The thoughts in your head will all go unsaid as days go by

The price you will pay

The live that you'll trade

Just say good-bye

You're down on your knees

You beg and you plead

And you can't change

What's in their eyes is black and white

And in your mind you know what's right

Thrown in a world you're forced to live

With no one to lend you a hand

Down in a hole that won't forgive

You've done all the fighting you can

Wish you were back where you began

Now only God understands

Down in a hole that won't forgive

Now you're an innocent man

Cry

When no one ever hears

Lie

You're alone with your own tears

There's no one to take you all away

No, it's time to be changed

Thrown in a world you're forced to live

With no one to lend you a hand

Down in a hole that won't forgive

You've done all the fighting you can

Wish you were back where you began

With no one to lend you a hand

Down in a hole that won't forgive

Now you're an innocent man
