Lyrics
Hell Is For Children
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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 hell, hell is for children
And you know that their little lives can become such a mess
Hell, hell is for children
And you shouldn't have to pay for your love
With your bones and your flesh
It's all so confusing, this brutal abusing
They blacken your eyes, and then apologize
Be daddy's good girl, and don't tell mommy a thing
Be a good little boy, and you'll get a new toy
Tell lzzy you fell off the swing
Because hell, hell is for children
And you know that their little lives can become such a mess
Hell, hell is for children
And you shouldn't have to pay for your love
With your bones and your flesh
No, hell is for children
Hell
Hell is for hell
Hell is for hell
Hell is for children
Hell
Hell is for hell
Hell is for hell
Hell is for children
Hell, hell, hell
Hell is for hell, hell, hell
Hell is for hell
Hell is for children
Hell is for children
Hell, hell
Hell is for hell (hell is for hell)
Hell is for hell (hell is for hell)
Hell is for children
Hell, hell
Hell is for hell (hell is for hell)
Hell is for hell (hell is for hell)
Hell is for children
Hell is for children
Hell is for children
