Mayer Hawthorne – The Innocent lyrics
She walks into the room and all the lights
Flicker violently
Keep your head down
No one makes a sound
Her boots are made from souls of stronger knights
Sitting silently
She stalks her prey
No one gets away

She's got it,
And you want it,
She's got it,
And you want it,
She's got it,
The innocent
Are never seen again.
She's got it,
And once she's on your track,
You're never comin' back
The innocent
Are never seen again.

She orders up a shot of Aberlour,
The tender starts to pour
With trembling hands
They all understand
She spins her barstool 'round and walks my way
And it's too late to pray
I hold my breath
Surrender to my death.

She's got it,
And you want it,
She's got it,
And you want it,
She's got it,
The innocent
Are never seen again.
She's got it,
And once she's on your track,
You're never comin' back
The innocent
Are never seen again.

And when she's got you her arms it's like a lullaby
The sweetest song you've ever heard, that my word
She'll make you feel like you're not just one of the other guys
But when you sleep you'll rest assured

She's got it,
And you want it,
She's got it,
And you want it,
She's got it,
The innocent
Are never seen again,.
She's got it,
And once she's on your track,
You're never comin' back
The innocent
Are never seen again.
