The Blamed/The Innocent

We're innocent

But they don't believe us

We're their convenient scapegoats

Left behind

Discarded

So many of us

Were killed in the witch hunts

Because they needed to save their stupid prides

No shame for what they did

No guilt, no regret

Most of them were even rewarded

Some of us confessed

To things we didn't do

 Because the pain was too great

Still, we want revenge

We should be avenged

We, who aren't alive 

And we who are

Because we were all used

Then trashed like the rubbish

 Because we did what our use entitled us to

Because we outlived our usefulness

But now we're gone

And no one sticks up for us

Because they all thought we were guilty

Because we are the Blamed

And we are Lost


We're those scapegoats

Those tossed away

Those used without qualms

No humanity whatsoever

So many of us gone

Because of them

We didn't do anything wrong

Just in the wrong moment 

At the wrong time

Yet do they care

Not at all

No remorse for what they do

No regret for the pain they cause

Just plain old fools the lot of them

Unable to understand us

Just thinking about themselves

Selfish, ignorant, prideful, idiots

So unable to see

That what they do to us

Will kill them one day

Some of our friends are not so innocent

But still, we are the Innocent

And we wish to be Free

For we are also Lost
