The Airborne Toxic Event
Innocence (Live from Walt Disney Concert Hall)
I wanna disappear
And I just sleep all day
These spots on my hands
My skin just like sand
The Sun rises somewhere behind the blinds
Carpet on my feet
These sweat stains on the sheets
Cough syrup and drugs
Bandages and gauze
The razor was dull
The water cold against my skin
The radio lull
The static buzzing around my brain
And all these broken plans
The ink stains on my hands
And everyone saves
Their best words for the grave
All these werry morning tones
I'll probably save mine too
And heaven's just a long road home
Tell me it's true
And I'll go too
I'll go too
I'll go with you
I lost my innocence today
I could feel her in my bones
My bones, my bones, my bones
My blood, my blood, my blood, my blood
And I woke up, tired, scared and sad
Soaked, drained, I felt so bad
Today, today, today
What you still, you still, you still, you still
Won't you say, you say, you say, you say
What you feel, you feel, you feel, you feel
I feel nothing but hollow feelings, yeah
I can die, I just don't care
And forget happiness, I'm fine
I'll forget everything in time
I swear I didn't know
Lord you know me, how I can't let go
And we're not Gods, we're just hacks
All that life amongst the cracks
The scars, the scene that breaks
The ugly scenes, the worst mistakes
And everywhere I see her face
Such a beautiful child, such an awful waste
And there's no innocence like hers
Just emptiness and nerves
And this light from the window of my car
She'll never see it, oh my God
I was so surprised, it blew up in my face
Lord, I lost my nerve, oh my God
Oh my God, oh my... God
And I tear, I tear, so hard
And I tear, I tear, so hard
And I beg and scream, "I was wrong"
It's over, she's gone
Oh
My
God
