Death Of Innocence Lyrics - Singles - Steel Prophet

What was the world for me as a child 

Full of innocence not yet wild 

I thought people 

All were good 

The world was ordered it was understood 

They put ideas in my head 

Fairy tales were what they said 

Soon I learned you all had hearts of black you beat 

And robbed and raped me laughed behind my back 

I thought the world mad I hated life 

Itself I cursed the god they made and then shoved down my throat 

I rebelled to them 

All I'd make them pay before they fall 

Death of innocence my values died 

No reference cut off from my soul 

The loss of heart leaves a blackened hole 

Now I think I'm on a path searching for enlightenment 

I sometimes feel I grasp the thread of eternity within my head 

Feeds me power from the earth feel the logic my spirit rebirth
