A Georgia plate with Jesus fish Innocent in ignorance You say it like it's some kind of joke For a moment I'm emotional Or maybe I'm not so complex If you're open I'll be open back And if you're kind to me I bet I'll be kinder, send the effort back For some time now I've hated him To anger I have given in So sure the world exists for him Contains only what he sees in it That life has no appeal for me That refusal of intensity But I keep it all inside my chest And he's innocent in ignorance On the interstate we see a deer Its body barely staying together Its blood spread thirty feet ahead It stains the highway overpass I avert my eyes to see such horror Its like a thing I'm not supposed to know But that was the same tour we saw this line of ducklings Getting trampled trying to cross the street Their blood collects in little pools Around their feathers, like some fucked up eggs They shot the gorilla in that Ohio zoo Because a little boy had gotten into his cage And to this day I still don't get it Who was innocent in ignorance? And to this day I still can't see Why the judgment is escaping me Who was innocent in ignorance? Innocent in ignorance Innocent in ignorance Innocent in ignorance
