Goodbye Innocence

Goodbye innocence, you didn't stay too long

You were her haven, her solace while she was young

But Fate decreed that fear would form her personality

And she would cry when daylight passed

Knowing that the night would bring, Daddy

Goodbye innocence, you made her happy

Goodbye innocence, you saved her from pain

But you weren't enough, to break the heavy fall

Goodbye, goodbye innocence

Now a woman, her character's 'unclean'

Childhood haunts her, she's fighting the things unseen

A slave to memory, relived as she sleeps

And freedom like the prisoner

Whose fate is sealed by hate, is a dream

Goodbye innocence, you made her happy

Goodbye innocence, you saved her from pain

But you weren't enough, to break the heavy fall

Goodbye, goodbye innocence

If only she found a reason to trust somebody

She would find a friend in me, o yes

See, I can't take away the pain, that she endured no, no, no

But I try to ease her misery

Goodbye innocence, you made her happy

Goodbye innocence, you saved her from pain

But you weren't enough, to break the heavy fall

Goodbye, goodbye innocence
