Innocence (song)

V1:
I'm lost in a foreign world
solitude but no peace.
I've ventured past my youth
the world's a scary place.

V2:
Death is everywhere
there is no hiding here.
Bombs falling from the air
no one without a tear.

Refrain:
I want to go back to when
my Daddy was a hero and
I want to go back to when
My mommy was a god.
Everybody was my friend
I was never wrong.
Back before my tragedy
Reality.

V3:
Lifting, growing, aging, trying
social security, medicare
slowly losing, quickly dying
Jesus, Mary almost there

Refrain:
But I want to to back to when
my Daddy was a hero and
I want to go back to when
my Mommy was a god.
Everybody knew just where
I had ever been.
Back before my tragedy
Senility.

V4:
Now I've made it home
I'm not alone anymore
there's nothing missing in my life
And I want you to know... I want you to know

Refrain:
I've made it back to when
my Daddy is my hero
I've made it back to when
my Mommy is my god.
Nothing to fear now
I won't shed a tear now.
