Unforgiven...

Ok about a week ago me and Dan had a debate on what some lyrics were to Unforgiven.

Just before the "Step inside the light and see the fear of God burn inside of me....." Is a bit (i'm sure you know what i'm talking about)

Does it go

"No more raping innocence" (What Dan thinks)

OR

"No more raping innocents" (What I think)

Can anyone tell me/us what it actually is? :P

I always thought it was the first one, I never gave it much thought to being anything else. I think it makes more sense to be innocence than innocents because of the sentence that comes before that. I really don't know because I hadn't really thought about it. Maybe someone else knows for sure.

I love that one too, Jen. I downloaded the whole House of Blues concert last weekend and it's fantastic!! I was so happy to see they did a live version of Sister too which is another favorite song of mine from MOP. Love Bound and Tied from that show too.

Sister is one of my favs too!! I always thought that sentence was No more raging innocence, but I just listened to it again for the millionth time and heard the raping part too!! I didn't realize they sang that...of course on the lyrics on the jacket of the cd they don't put those words in!! Thanks for the heads up guys, nice to know what I'm really singing!!
