tell me little girl, what they've done to you 

 i can see it in your eyes 

 tell me little boy, what have you been through 

 i can see you're empty inside 

 

 pre-chorus 

 there's just no forgivin' 

 for the way they've done you wrong 

 does he see up high when they give in 

 in the name of the father and the son 

 

 

 chorus 

 now their 

 heart's hollow. soul in sorrow 

 eyes cold and innocence stolen 

 they are the children of the cross 

 love taken. god forsaken 

 failed by the one they relied on 

 they are the children of the cross 

 

 

 so tell me little girl what they've done to you 

 i can feel you're empty inside. 

 and tell me little boy, what have you've been through 

 i can see the distance in your eyes 

 

 pre-chorus 

 there's just no forgivin' 

 for the way they've done you wrong 

 does he see up high when they give in 

 in the name of the father and the son 

 

 

 chorus 

 now their 

 heart's hollow. soul in sorrow 

 eyes cold and innocence stolen 

 they are the children of the cross 

 love taken. god forsaken 

 failed by the one they relied on 

 they are the children of the cross
