Sweet Innocence

I walk through the darkest rooms

Full of gloom and minds like mazes

And rejoice 'cause I'll be the voice

Of your failure fucking generation

Still don't belong to anyone

This is a life of hesitation

And we'd all trade one night to remember

For the years we've carelessly wasted

Big dreams and half full drinks

A few pills in your guts

So now it's easy to think or breathe

And true love was just a marketed ploy

So guys can hit their lines

And girls can grab their boys

Sweet innocence with loser's luck

I know you think you're giving love

But you're just getting fucked

Guess what?

I looked and you know what I found?

That you can't expect to trust this world

When you can't even trust yourself

And your head starts to spin

As you dance to the beat

Because tomorrow isn't promised

But it's sure as fuck is coming

And your body starts to shake

As you sing in the streets

Because it's cold outside

So you better start running

Don't count on me to save your life

When I've never had

A clear enough perspective on mine

And I know things change

we'll go our separate ways

And alive is the only thing

It seems we've stayed lately

And the truth isn't always easy to believe

You walk alone to the sound of your own heartbeat

And I know it's not always so easy to see

But we are still all so fucking beautiful to me
