Through a Child's Eyes Lyrics

Through a child's eyes

can one yet realize
that their innocence of youth

has been denied

that one's father

is a thief and liar

and one's mother

is an addict

that shares herself

with strangers

while one's told to

"turn your head and watch TV"
seated on a filthy s*** carpet

littered with

cigarette b***s

and dirty points

the sympathetic cannot disguise

the sorrow felt

and will shed tears

that the child may never them self
as they are thrust headfirst

into the harsh reality of life

Through a child's eyes

can one yet realize

that their innocence of youth

has been denied

the sympathetic cannot disguise

the sorrow felt

and will shed tears

that the child may not them self
