Young and Innocent
When we were young and innocent, we always thought we would live forever
That life was just a fascinating idea and that we would never become broken.
When we were young and innocent we thought the ones we loved would live with us forever
That death wasn't real, just a silly notation.
When we were young and innocent we believed that the world was perfect
That the people in this world were even more so.
Then we grew up, and our innocence was taken.
We learned that all the things we believed were actually a lie.
We learned that life is a broken, imperfect entity
We learned that death is real, not just make believe
Our innocent little minds were broken and shaken
The world turned out to be a heartless, frigid place
The people in it even more so.
That life was just a fascinating idea and that we would never become broken.
