The Ending of Innocence

Capo 3

[Verse 1]
Here we are all silent and sound, standing on familiar ground
If you're not destined to remember, then you're destined to repeat
It's your future, not theirs, It's your future, not theirs

[Verse 2]
Love becomes an emotion, that we can turn off (turn off your electric light)
As consumption owns our soul
Day to day, today goes by, work our fingers to the bone
It's our future, not hope

[Chorus 1]
Brush your hair back, as you always do, I'm watching you
Don't go for work today, let's stay inside, let the night slide through
Empty house, and a bottle of wine, the fire is burning bright
This is the ending of innocence

[Verse 3]
We are all confined inside in our own little ways
Arms wide open waiting for the days to end
Life lies me down in a bed of lies
It's my future, I've come to accept

[Chorus 2]
Brush your hair back, as you always do, I'm watching you
Don't go for work today, let's stay inside, I promise I'll be true
Empty house, and a bottle of wine, the fire is burning through your skin
This is the ending of innocence...
This must be the ending of innocence

[Solo]

[Chorus 3]
Brush your hair back, as you always do, just do that just for me
Let the whole world outside burn down for all I care
The world can be without us for a day, live in complete debauchery, yeah
Let all the days before this moment fade as if they were never there
This is the ending of innocence.
