Innocence

You see it from the outside

You're running toward the wall

But you don't know me at all

I've been here too many times before

And your tears don't mean a thing

I only come when you scream, I told you

[CHORUS:]

Child, don't follow me home

You're just too perfect for my hands to hold

If you choose to stay, you'll throw it all away

And I just want to take your innocence

Is this what you wanted

Did I make your dreams come true?

You're sitting in a corner

Wondering what you got into

And you ache for things you don't understand

That your tears don't mean a thing

I only come when you scream, and I told you

[CHORUS]

There's no such thing as fate

Only yourself to blame you never walked away

[CHORUS]
