i just.. miss the way i used to be
before anyone had noticed me
my eyes were clear and saw perfectly
exactly how they deserted me
i miss the way i used to think
before my heart ever had the chance to sink
my mind was solid
my heart wasn't sore
now i can barely feel it anymore
i miss the way i was before
i ever came into this world
and was torn apart by insignificance
but my heart was kind and full of joy
was never noticed by a boy
so innocence was something that i clung
i miss the way i used to be
before i became unhappy
before i ever knew wrong from right
i miss the way i used to live
when i had nothing to ever give
when the most i had was
the person that i was
now everything can be offered
the tiny bits of my spirit - slaughtered
and as hopeless as i am
wish is one thing i still can
and i wish i could be the way i used to
before i ever did what i want to
i miss everything
from before i could think
i just miss
innocence
