Where has all of the innocence gone?
I thought the concept was known, it wasn't ours to pawn.

You think you are pure? Full of heart? Well you are so wrong.

God, how have we become so corrupt?
I'm kind of glad this world is close to erupt.

We are always hoping to be changed,
but that faith is making us more, and more deranged.

Why can't I change?

Please help me understand this right...
The light at the end of the tunnel is so damn bright.
My life use to be constructed in an array.
Now we're all just confused, and fading away.
I am so confused... So confused.

Woke up at two in the morning, and started writing this down. Probably not that good. Haha. Oh well.

Faith is like learning to walk; you have to fall at first, but don&#039;t stay down. When in doubt, don&#039;t stop believing.
