Gothic Slam - Battered Youth

Why should the children of the world, be
beaten to their death
Troubled parents, troubled minds, beating
children time after time.
Found in Bags in the trash, innocent victims
of a mind, that has crashed.

(Chorus)
Someone help them, help them please
It's up to us to fulfill their needs,
BATTERED YOUTH!

Time and time you read it in the news,
Pictures of children, battered and bruised,
YEAH!

No Stop! You hear them cry, as the fire burns
in the giant's eyes.
Used for sex, and other ways, what the hell
Is going on in society today.

(Repeat Chorus)

Estimated 5,000 a year, we must save the
children who live in fear.
Tortured child, battered youth

Too young to talk, but's in thier eyes, all
the trouble they have to hide
Troubled minds, troubled times, in this
places we've come to be.
No one ever knows the reason why?

The baby's cryin' all night long.
Hold that anger, she's done nothing wrong.

Well tortured child-Oh Battered Youth
