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 and the same in the eyes of a wounded child


Because hell, hell is for children
And you know that their little lives can become such a mess
Hell, Hell 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 brutal abusing
They blacken your eyes and they apologise
You're daddy's good girl, dont tell mommy a thing
Be good little boy and you'll get a new toy
Tell grandma you fell off the swing


Because hell, hell is for children
And you know that their little lives can become such a mess
Hell, Hell is for children
well, you shouldn't have to pay for your love
with your bones and your flesh
No, Hell is for children


Hell, hell is for hell, hell is for hell
Hell is for children
Hell, hell is for hell, hell is for hell
Hell is for children


Hell, hell is for hell, hell is for hell
Hell is for children
Hell, hell is for hell, hell is for hell
Hell is for children


Hell is for children
Hell is for children
