Innocent xx
xx Back
There is nothing to see in this black space
Nothing to hold onto
And no light to see my sullen face
Or the waters that run below.

I have nothing to offer to make amends
Nothing to trade and nothing to gain
The minutes slowly click by with the seconds
And I know I've got everything to lose within the pain.

The thought has come strolling once again
I say 'Amen', not knowing what it meant
And as I fall forward to the end
I know I'm going back to where I was--innocent.
