Innocence, That Luxury



Innocence, That Luxury

Don’t you hate the word alleged?
It’s a concept sitting on a ledge
And it’s a nearsighted view we have
Oh frustration and goddamnit, it’s so unclear!

It might be a politician or lying submission
Accuser pointing a finger in my direction!
Horror’s felt by the innocent
Sweat and tremors shake the guilty

Nobody knows, for sure, that momentary stop
Did I blink too quick or smile like a croc?
Human psyche rather fragile
I cling to my coffee cup that rings normality

They think the Twilight Zone was a terrifying show
They don’t know, a real life predicament is terror from below
Mercy and justice stand over me
Which one I choose destroys or sets me free
