Oh innocence, sweet things are gone from you 
Lost, they wander 
Searching for their home 
Pink ribbons flap in the wind 
Once white dresses now dingy & brown 
Ruffles tangled at the hem 
Their knees scraped & bloody 
Dirt caked under their nails 
One shoe on, one shoe gone
Their hopeful eyes search vacant hills
