Away From Innocence
I knew it wasn’t cool
So I quickly lined my eye
Drew the cigarette to my mouth
Coughed as I gave it a try
Since when did I care what they would think?
Insecurities growing strong
I thought myself to be rather hip
Apparently I was wrong
I rapidly started to lose myself
Forgetting who I was inside
Any trace of me brought to the surface
Would have access denied
CandyLand’s magic was all gone
Snap, Crackle, and Pop lost it’s appeal
Friends, boys, and parties
Were the only thing that was real
Forever didn’t seem that far away
Love had a different meaning
Santa Claus was no longer my hero
I stopped dreaming
