The Innocent

[Verse 1: Joel Madden]

The start of Armageddon

It was just another day

We all saw the news, nothing to say

So many friends are missing

Family members gone

So we all prayed God help them be strong

And now we stand together

Remembering that day

The lives we live will never be the same

[Chorus: Joel Madden]

We don't know why

The innocent die

Will this world ever find a way to change?

We don't know why

But we know it's not right

We don't know why so many had to die

We don't know why so many had to die

[Verse 2: John Feldmann]

Hate has turned to others

For their religion or their skin

But hate can't solve the problem it began

Everyone is angry

People are afraid

And no one knows what decisions will be made

[Chorus: Joel Madden & John Feldmann]

We don't know why

The innocent die

Will this world ever find a way to change?

We don't know why

But we know it's not right

We don't know why so many had to die

We don't know why so many had to die

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus: Joel Madden & John Feldmann]

We don't know why (Don't know why)

The innocent die (Don't know why)

Will this world ever find a way to change?

We don't know why (Don't know why)

But we know it's not right (Don't know why)

Will any of us ever be the same?

Will any of this ever be the same?

[Outro: John Feldmann]

I don't know why

The innocent die

Will any of us ever be the same?

Any of this ever be the same?
