Hearts Of The Innocent

Hearts Of The Innocent - Kutless

Written by：Jon Micah Sumrall/Aaron Sprinkle/Ryan David Shrout

I'm looking down into the eyes of hopelessness

They're crying out to me

I see the pain it's so much more than youth should know

It tears me apart

What can I do to change what I see

This vicious cycle must come to an end

Can't you see we're crushing the hearts of the innocent

We're teaching them to fail

And how it breaks me to see how we're living

And punishing the ones that need us to care

To see them hurting

Feels like knuckles to the back of my head

Where have the days gone that a promise was forever

Families stuck together

We wonder why their generation struggles to get by

There's no one to help what can I do to change what I see

This vicious cycle must come to an end

Can't you see we're crushing the hearts of the innocent

We're teaching them to fail

And how it breaks me to see how we're living

And punishing the ones that need us to care

To see them hurting

Feels like knuckles to the back of my head

Can't you see we're crushing the hearts of the innocent

We're teaching them to fail

And how it breaks me to see how we're living

And punishing the ones that need us to care

To see them hurting

Feels like knuckles to the back of my head

Feels like knuckles to the back of my head
