The Innocent - Drivin N Cryin

I want you to want me

I want you to know

What it is that I’ve got here

What I’m looking for

Down on the outside

He knows you’re out there

Something from nothing

Do you care to share my prayer?

Save me

Get used to it

The innocent

Get used to it

Rich politicians

Distribute the wealth

But they’re afraid that I’ll run away

And never better myself

Down on the inside

They’re building statues of steel

Protect me from your enemies

And there they sit with their children weeping

If you don’t want me tagging along

Why don’t you turn around and tell me so?

Instead of wasting my time

But on the horizon

It’s so hard to tell

Help me up to touch the sky

Or keep me down on the ground by promises
