Fuel - Innocent
Satan, you know where I lie
Gently I go into that good night
All our lives get complicated
Search for pleasures overrated
Never armed our souls
What the future would hold
When we were innocent
Innocent
Angels, lend me your might
Forfeit all my lives to get just one right
All those colors long since faded
All our smiles are confiscated
Never were we told
We'd be bought and sold
When we were innocent
Yeaaaaaah Yeah
This prayer is for me tonight
This far down that line and still ain't got it right
And while confessions not yet stated
Our next sin is contemplated
Never did we know
What the future would hold
Or that we'd be bought and sold
When we were innocent, innocent
When we were innocent
**********************************************
It's so cold...I finally had to bring it all in tonight, since my studio is a frozen, barren tundra. I'm in my office, with my outdoor easel set up, working like an elf in these little quarters. Sniffing fumes and smoking cigars...
I looked out the window, and the snow is gently falling again...but I won't drown in the snow. The aroma of odorless spirits is noxious...but the sweet scent of cloves makes me feel good. Happy Birthday!! Or, is it Happy Un-Birthday? Whatever....
Still the snow is falling. I'll be o.k. in the morning. What do ya want? Maybe it's cabin fever...
