Description
"Unforgiven Innocence"By: Jade Lightning, a.k.a. Inuyashas-hanyougirl
Verse 1
Received forgiveness for all the sins in which you took part
And yet this pardon could not undo the evil in your heart
You’ll move on to greater heartaches, bringing pain to all you meet
From stealing from your loved ones, to random murder on the street
But that’s okay, for you know just how to escape in the end,
You’ll feign such precious innocence, and be forgiven again.
Chorus
So you’ll easily get away with everything that’s wrong
And hide it all from the world with your deceitful silence
‘Cause you are the master of getting away with it all,
While maintaining your Unforgiven Innocence
Innocence, left unforgiven…that will spread the embers of hatred, much too far.
Verse 2
It starts with one sin, getting you caught, yet when you get away
You’re left to do what you want and sin another day
But the more you get away with, the more careless you become
You’ll be consumed by your hatred, taking pride in what you’ve done
But that’s okay, for you know just how to escape in the end,
You’ll feign such precious innocence, and be forgiven again.
Chorus
Again you’ll get away with all the things that you do wrong
Hiding it all from the world with your false-hearted silence
You’ll remain the master of getting away with it all,
And maintaining your Unforgiven Innocence
Bridge Verse
Everywhere you go, the whole world must play by your rules
And in this frightful game you play, someone’s bound to lose
For once someone steps out of line, or gets in your way,
Your anger and hatred will grow, rage and escalate
Once that time comes, no one is safe from your deep malevolence
Come what may, you’ll get your way, with Unforgiven Innocence
Verse 3
Though your arrogant pride may rage, even it will have its end
But no matter what befalls you, you have your pride to defend
Two murder counts, a family’s tears, will never move your soul
Not even a death sentence, could move your arrogance to fold
You say they got what they deserved, when they dared to cross your line,
Despite your shattered innocence, it was worth watching them die
Chorus
For so long you got away with everything you did wrong
And now all the world has seen through your corrupted silence
While you’re the fallen master of getting away with it all,
You still believe in your Unforgiven Innocence
Innocence, that remains unforgiven…that spread the embers of hatred, much too far.

Wow... what more can I say than: this is most impressive. I agree with Nest when she says that your writing skills never cease to impress!! I wish I could write something as meaningful as this... it's a shame I'm so self-centered XD
I love the last 2 lines of the verses in particular. The flow seems to just... work. I can almost hear a music track playing along as I read it. It works. It definitely works.
Sorry I can't think of anything more productive to say

Aww wow, thanks ^^ I'm glad you liked it
I had the title down for awhile; it was a favorite phrase of mine, and since I've gotten music going with my friend Aaron, I decided to put lyrics to it
I love those lines myself. I was writing this with intention to have it put to music, so as I was "singing" it in my head, I realized how well they fit So yes, thank you so much for pointing that out ^^
I do appreciate the comment Thank you
