Innocence Lost
Innocence Shattered: A Reflection on Life's Cruelties
Lyrics
Respect is something you have to learn.
Respect is a learned behavior.
All innocence lost.
Loss of innocence.
For those who have not forgotten,
Referring to those who remember their origin.
Where they came from.
A reminder of one's roots.
The misconceptions of what should be,
Challenges the common beliefs.
A failed life, a torn past.
Reference to a troubled past.
Living for one reason I've created,
Living with a purpose, creating one's destiny.
My own destiny.
Emphasizing individual agency.
Countless cruelties bestowed upen me,
Experiencing numerous hardships.
Freewill, what a novel idea.
Reflecting on the concept of free will.
Spend you lifelime living for something.
Lifetime dedication to a cause.
In the end it's all a lie.
The ultimate realization of deception.
Born just to die in a world of hate - I suffer.
Existence marked by suffering in a hateful world.
Blood in blood out something go - beyond the grave.
Symbolic reference to a commitment beyond death.
Innocence lost.
Reiteration of the theme of lost innocence.
Born just to die in a world of hate - I suffer.
Continuation of the theme of suffering in a hostile world.
Blood in blood out something go - beyond the grave.
Reiteration of commitment extending beyond death.
Taught to believe.
Being taught to believe in societal expectations.
The imperfections of this human lie.
Highlighting the flaws in human nature.
On the inside the fire rage.
Internal struggles represented by raging fire.
Throught my while existence.
Lifetime of expressing emotions and struggles.
Pour my heart out on this pad.
Channeling emotions through creative expression.
It does no good for me now.
Expression's futility in the present.
At the same time, the afterlife doesn't seem so bad.
Contemplating the afterlife as an alternative.
Born just to die in a world of hate - I suffer.
Reiteration of the suffering in a hateful world.
Blood in blood out something go - beyond the grave.
Continuation of commitment beyond death.
Innocence lost.
Reiteration of the theme of lost innocence.
Born just to die in a world of hate - I suffer.
Continuation of the theme of suffering in a hostile world.
Blood in blood out something go - beyond the grave.
Reiteration of commitment extending beyond death.
I've made my way, I'll have to deal.
Acceptance of one's path despite challenges.
With the fact that there is no changing.
Coming to terms with the unchangeable future.
My tomorrow forever.
Acknowledging the enduring impact of the past.
Be altered by my yesterday.
The inevitability of certain events.
Some things are meant to be.
Acceptance of destiny.
If I could change it all I would do it.
Expressing a desire to change the past.
In a heart beat.
An immediate desire for change.
In a heart beat.
Emphasizing urgency in change.
In a heart beat.
Repetition of the urgency for change.
One step a a time, I've fallen.
Progressing step by step, falling behind.
I've fallen too far behind.
Acknowledging a significant setback.
Now I think I've lost my mind,
Perceived loss of sanity.
In the end it's all a lie
Reiteration of the ultimate deception.
