Resolve to Innocence
Overcome by good intentions
Walking in circles
Toe the line
Underwhelmed by your deception
Ignore the suffering
Willfully blind
Pull back the black curtains
Will I feel the sun on my skin again
Push back inherited burdens
Feel the pressure resolve back to innocence
Eyes to the sky
Arms reaching out
Hold my breath
And start to count
Question the obedience
Embrace the deviant
Here we are praying that the end is near
Here we are watching the ashes fall
It’s up to you if we keep marching on
It’s up to you if we keep marching on
It’s up to you if we keep marching on
It’s up to you if we keep marching on
Abuse, religion, or upbringing
What’s the difference
Sometimes we play the spoiled victor
Other times the deprived victim
Woefully behind
Willfully ignorant
Keep moving forward
Take me in your arms
Help me learn or finally forget
