Innocence

See your father, son

Come sit and listen

I've been walking on a rather strange path,

But here I am now unmasked

Take a deep breath

The monsters under your pillow I've been passing over with silence,

And I've been lying for as long as I could,

So you could have your playgrounds

But now this time has come for you to know -

Soon you'll start to like your sleep more and more,

Because when you're awake, you'll see your life falling apart

And the stars and the skies you'll never reach them

You've been given a wish without being given the power to make it true..

Well well well my father, you may want to reconsider

Yet I've been told by your adversary -

I'm always free to change my mind,

Choose a different future and a different past

Is it so?.. no!

"Look deep in my eyes past all the lies,

Past my act past this disguise,

Past the scars and past the tears,

You will see only fear."..

And this time up on the earth,

Living by the "things will get better"

Holding the thoughts back will never save you from yourself

You are your own end
