For the Innocent

A child waits in the wings It's clear in her mind today Wish it all away She deserves to be at peace The walls are closing in She only has a moment To go and chase it again Like never before We all must have a purpose A life that we must own Instead of fight for nothing And only exist until we fall I've taken all my chances And tossed them in the dirt I'm leaving my life of solitude behind me, yeah Cause I still see the light A doorway that is mine Take the steps to guide me I've just fallen, fallen behind We all must have a purpose A life that we must own Instead of fight for nothing And only exist until we fall With hand grenades to help us Lift us when we aren't strong Instead we live for something We exist to break our fall, fall, fall I'm going to get you away From all this monstrosity I'd sacrifice anything Just to be by your side again We all must have a purpose A life that we must own Instead of fight for nothing And only exist until we fall With hand grenades to help us Lift us when we aren't strong Instead we live for something We exist to break our fall, fall, fall
