Innocence At The Core

Can I look in the mirror and love what I see
Instead of all the darkness chasing me
And the demons to which I succumb
I don’t know how to get out so I just run
And what is the use in being young
If you use your strength to be high strung
And everyone’s saying all of these things
But I have hidden a pair of wings
That extend out over me
If they’re gonna save me I’ve gotta be free
And know who I am when I walk my shoes
Don’t pay the price, just pay my dues
And they may have a number on me
But I’m not playing with vague history
Only the dashboard on which the cam
Plays a new tune to break the dam
As it floods me with rays of light
It’s bliss and I’m alright
For now, the going is strong
And you didn’t do anything wrong
I love you, babe
But I’m not someone you need to save
Coz I’m standing on solid ground
In the years of the great shakedown
Do you wanna hold my hand
The space is yours beside me on the sand
