Innocence
Innocence
(Who is innocent? No one is innocent. Who is innocent?)
Who is innocent?
Is it relevant, in the world today?
I shake my head in disbelief
The killer walks again
Freed by evil men in their dark charade
This can’t be happening
A mother’s selfish pride
Her child’s homicide
Can she be to blame?
The suited vultures circling
A father’s cruelty
A murdered family
Is the world insane?
Their defenders ready to embrace their lies
With their devious smiles
Chorus:
Your corruption is like
A cancer growing inside
You owe the world an apology
You’ve been taught all your life
That truth is easy to hide
You’ll face your judgment another day
And suffer eternally
Presumed innocent
Justice fails again in the masquerade
A battered woman trembling
Her lover drunk again
When will the torture end
In her web of shame?
Is death the only way?
A child victimized
The crime politicized
For the counselor’s gain
The rabid media congregates
His tortured memories
A pervert’s fantasies
Is the world insane?
The parasitic devastation seen
On your TV screen
Chorus
False defender, burn forever
Cold and spineless, have you no soul?
Wicked-minded, out of control, and guided
By their hunger, they will find new
Ways to betray us
Chorus
Who is innocent?
Is it relevant in the world today?
I shake my head in disbelief
Presumed innocent
Justice fails again in the masquerade
Has the whole world become insane?

Damn the beginning of this song is fucking epic, not to mention the whole goddamn song. \m/ (-__-) \m/
This is the truth about the mass media, "a cancer growing inside.."
They will find new
Ways to betray us!
If that's not a future prediction, I don't know what is.
I can not live without Disturbed
y cnt we listen to all the songs on the album not just another way to die aslyum and the animal? and we cnt choose outher albums ?
this song shows that you can never trust the media. i dont give a shit about any of the media crap. Hell, if I had my way I'd just say fuck the whole system.
"With a perverts fantasy" great line there is much of this today and how the fucking media lies is true. FUCKING LOVE YOU GUYS.
i owe the world more then just an apology. thus Ive already realized, but it now has improved another perspective. muchly appreciated.
sick ass song
fuckin epic song/ and album :F
love the song completely
Best song on this album. LOVE LOVE LOVE the lyrics and the meaning. Our "justice" system really is teribly flawed and is going down the tubes fast. I agree with this 100%
Love this song I think it's one of their all time ones like Stricken or Stupify. :D ( Your corruption is like a cancer growing inside you owe the world an apology) Fucking awsome song. Thanks Disturbed you are Fucking Legends
Love the similar style to Facade, in the chorus. I'm slowly realizing that this is one of the greatest songs on the album.
love this song
nice music..
