Kevin Browne: Songs

Never Innocent

(Kevin Browne)
February, 2001
You came into the world
In life there was no shame
They’ve given you a name, no one there to blame
Step into the street, dirty up your feet
Then point your finger at someone else

Curse the world around you
Blame society’s indifference
Words spewed like poison venom
When you should have been reticent, should have been reticent

Strike, strike out with your fists
Autonomy was missed
And all because of this you raise your voice to the sky
Why the innocent die
Always asking why, asking why?

Curse the world around you
Blame society’s indifference
Words spewed like poison venom
When you should have been reticent
Hide amongst the shadows
You’re just another malcontent
You never knew that you were, never really innocent,
never really innocent
