Deming, Reed - Innocence Lyrics

Keep your innocence
It's a cold hard world that we're living in
You can lose everything in an instant
You can lose yourself in an instant
Keep your innocence
Through all of their games and their politics
Cause all the dogs eat dogs, that's just how it is
Anything for a dollar or a following

But that's human nature
Give and take
Give and take
But darling no forbidden fruit is worth the taste
You must always know yourself
Know your truth, know your place
And don't you ever trade that truth for anything

Keep your innocence
When you don't get out what you're putting in
And you feel like failure is imminent
Gotta be real careful how you handle it
It's so easy to go back on what you believe
Compromise yourself just to join the elites
But justice always has a couple cards up her sleeve
Justice always has a couple cards up her sleeve

I know that human nature is give and take, give and take
But darling no forbidden fruit is worth the taste
You must always know yourself
Know your truth, know your place
And don't you ever trade that truth for anything

For anything
For anything
For anything

Human nature is give and take, give and take
But darling no forbidden fruit is worth the taste
You must always know yourself
Know your truth, know your place
And don't you ever trade that truth for anything

For anything
For anything
For anything
