Innocent

You start off with lies, piercing my heart
Tear it to pieces right from the start
A weight on my chest crushing my soul
Please lift it off, need to breathe and let go

Mystical eyes gaze through the world
Trying to find peace while hell is unfolding on
The innocent ones burdened by fear
Fighting with hate, won't let anyone near
I understand

'Cause I'm an innocent one
And to tell the truth
It's hard to get rid of the demons inside you
Such a sinister place
You exactly knew
How to take your lies and turn them into something true
I'm the innocent one

The beating of drums disrupting the march
Of time racing toward us escaping the dark
The shimmer of strings brightens the way
Voices ring out and yet here you stay

Stay here with me, that's what they say
The whispers they call, clear as the daylight
Mystical eyes blinded by greed
Losing your peace, releasing a beast
Inside yourself

But we're the innocent ones
And you know it's true that
It's hard to get rid of the demons inside you
Such a sinister place
I exactly knew
How to take your lies and turn them into something true
We're the innocent ones

We ended with pain caused by each other
Ended this game, moved on to another
A circle of fools

We're not the innocent ones
And you know it's true
It's hard to get rid of the demons inside you
Such a sinister place
I exactly knew
How to take our lies and turn them into something true

Not the innocent ones
And I know it's cruel
That we've built our lives on the worst of what we knew
In the hell that we've made
From your point of view
It's me who dragged you down, it's me who lied to you
We're not the innocent ones
