There was a time When innocence defined me. Perhaps I was a bit niave. I've never wanted anything But the best for the people I love, but as I age, in my cage, I realize that those I love Have often taken my love And seen it as their due. Taken for granted, until I Break, perhaps my love is Poison, or I'm a mistake. I fell, into hell, and they Tell me its the world we know. Ten years ago, I'd have denied All the tears that since, I've cried. And flames are not always hot, Sometimes they're cold as Someone who doesn't care, But only fakes it, until I'm Used up, like a tube of toothpaste Empty now, nothing left, But my broken innocence.

When innocence defined me.
Perhaps I was a bit niave.
I've never wanted anything
But the best for the people
I love, but as I age, in my cage,
I realize that those I love
Have often taken my love
And seen it as their due.
Taken for granted, until I
Break, perhaps my love is
Poison, or I'm a mistake.
I fell, into hell, and they
Tell me its the world we know.
Ten years ago, I'd have denied
All the tears that since, I've cried.
And flames are not always hot,
Sometimes they're cold as
Someone who doesn't care,
But only fakes it, until I'm
Used up, like a tube of toothpaste
Empty now, nothing left,
But my broken innocence.
