Innocence (Simian Mobile Disco) Songtext / Lyric

I once had no fears, none at all

And then when I had some

To my surprise, I grew to like both

Scared or brave without them



The thrill of fear

Thought I'd never admit it

The thrill of fear

Now greatly enjoyed with courage



When I once was untouchable

Innocence roared, still amazes

When I once was innocent

It's still here but in different places



Neurosis only attaches itself to

Fertile ground where it can flourish






The thrill of fear

Thought I'd never admit it

The thrill of fear

Now greatly enjoyed with courage



When I once was fearless

Innocence roared, still amazes

Untouchable, innocence

It's still here but in different places



Fear is a powerful drug

Overcome it and you think that

You can do anything



Should I save myself

For later or generously give?



Fear of losing energy is draining

It locks up your chest

Shuts down the heart miserly and stingy

Let's open up, share



When I once was fearless

Innocence roared, still amazes

Untouchable, innocence

It's still here but in different places
