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 [bad word] one and the same
In the eyes of a wounded child

Because [bad word]  [bad word] is for children
And you know that their little lives can [bad word] such a mess
 [bad word] [bad word] is for children
And you shouldn't have to pay for your love with your bones and your flesh

It's all so confusing, this [bad word] abusing
They blacken your eyes, and then apologize
You're daddy's good girl, and don't tell mommy a thing
Be a good little boy, and you'll get a new toy
Tell grandma you fell off the swing

No, [bad word] is for children

 [bad word]  [bad word] is for [bad word]  [bad word] is for [bad word]  [bad word] is for children
