She derived from abuse
was made to feel she was of no use
she has scars and nightmares
but one man was acutely aware
of the pain she carried within
none of them were without sin
her family full of sharks
went straight for her heart
they knew she was soft, loving and caring
they’d cursed her with words and watched how she was faring
For 32 years, in the background, I’ve watched and waited
surely this madness will be abated?
No one, not one noticed the guise
that she was the one they truly despised
Marlena, Charity, Grace and Priscilla are always at fault
he’s had enough, they will be put to a halt
they thought to maximize the time and space
to keep Innocence reminded of her place
I should inform her, I’ve worked tirelessly throughout my adolescence
to amass charms, wealth and really great presents
all for the day
when I carry her away
now is the moment, here is my chance
to ask Innocence to join me, in life, this great dance
sometimes our steps will be erratic, a waltz, the foxtrot
but you’ll have me and I you, you’re all I’ve got
so come with me, take my hand and take a great leap
what I can always promise you is that we’ll land on our feet.
