Innocence
by
Dusdee Bland
The times in my life when i didn't care
It's so impossible to go back there
The smile, the sparkle, the air
I've lost all of that and it isn't fair
when we were young
we never knew
all of those days
we were true
everything hurts now
since we grew
the things we'd have changed
if only we knew
So many things i wish i had said
All of the times my soul was bled
There's so much that i can't justify in my head
I wish i could change the life that i've led
Sometimes it feels like this body's not mine
And who i am is so hard to find
When i was young i walked a straight line
Now feels like the time to redefine
the things we'd have changed
if only we knew
I think back to the days when life was simple
When there were no worries of blemishes or pimples
I wish i could still appreciate every dimple
And truely believe in my heart that my body's a temple
when we were young
we never knew
all of those days
we were true
everything hurts now
since we grew
the things we'd have changed
if only we knew
