Love for a Child

There's a picture on my kitchen wall
 Looks like Jesus and His friends involved
 There's a party getting started in the yard
 And there's a couple getting steamy in the car, parked in the drive
 Was I too young to see this with my eyes?
 And by the pool that night, apparently
 The chemicals weren't mixed properly
 You hit your head and then forgot your name
 Then you woke up at the bottom by the drain
 And now your altitude and memory's a shame
 What about taking this empty cup and filling it up
 With a little bit more of innocence, I haven't had enough
 It's probably because when you're young
 It's okay to be easily ignored
 I'd like to believe it was all about love for a child
 
 
 When the house was left in shambles
 Who was there to handle all the broken bits of glass
 Was it mom who put my dad out on his ass or the other way around?
 Well, I'm far too old to care about that now
 What about taking this empty cup and filling it up
 With a little bit more of innocence, I haven't had enough
 It's probably because when you're young
 It's okay to be easily ignored
 I'd like to believe it was all about love for a child
 It's kinda nice to work the floor since the divorce
 I've been enjoying both my Christmases and my birthday cakes
 And taking drugs and making love at far too young an age
 And they never checked to see my grades
 What a fool I'd be to start complaining now
 What about taking this empty cup and filling it up
 With a little bit more of innocence, I haven't had enough
 It's probably because when you're young
 It's okay to be easily ignored
 I'd love to believe it was all about love for a child
 It was all about love
