Hell Is For Children

They cry in the dark
So you can't see their tears
They hide in the light
So you can't see their fears
Forgive and forget
All the while
Love and pain become one and the same
In the eyes of a wounded child
Because hell, hell is for [Dm7]children
And you [A7know that their little lives can become such a mess
Hell, hell is for [Dm7]children
And you [A7shouldn't have to [C7]pay for [Dm7]your love
With your bones and [Bm]your flesh

It's all [Em]so confusing this brutal abusing
They blacken your eyes and [Bm]then apologize
Be daddy's good girl, and [Bm]don't tell mommy [A]a thing
Be a good little boy, and [Bm]you'll get a new toy
Tell grandma you [A7fell from the swing
Because hell, hell is for [Dm7]children
And you [A7know that their little lives can become such a mess
Hell, hell is for [Dm7]children
And you [A7shouldn't have to [C7]pay for [Dm7]your love
With your bones and [Bm]your flesh
No, hell is for [Dm7]children

Hell, hell is for [Dm7]hell
Hell is for [Dm7]hell
Hell is for [Dm7]children
Hell, hell is for [Dm7]hell
Hell is for [Dm7]hell
Hell is for [Dm7]children
Hell, hell is for [Dm7]hell
Hell is for [Dm7]hell
Hell is for [Dm7]children
Hell is for [Dm7]children
Hell is for [Dm7]children
