lyrics

I continue to try to understand the method to your madness
But the fog never rolls away
Your sense of reality has left you
Your common sense led astray
By the crowd of voices surrounding you
The stupidity of the mob mentality binds you to your delusional state of mind
And yet you seem quite surprised to find

You took it away from me
My life, my innocence, my naivete
All I want is to believe in you and pretend that they are wrong
But now I'm left dealing with what you've become
You took it away from me
You took it away from me

For years the story remained the same
The truth covered with a sarcastic grin
A tale weaved with twists and turns
A witty punchline
Or a shrug and a faraway gaze

Woah, how is it we all continue to be snowed by those we love
We're blinded by blood before truth or so it would seem
We all damn those we see on the news
Those junkies, those losers, those burdens on society
But when it's one of your own
The light, it shines a little bit differently

You took it away from me
My life, my innocence, my naivete
All I want is to believe in you and pretend that they are wrong
But now I'm left dealing with what you've become
You took it away from me
You took it away from me, yeah

The worst is knowing that once you had a chance
To make the opposite turn at your fork in the road
The fact that I feel partly responsible cuts deep into my soul
Even when my brain knows that it's not so

So prove me right or prove me wrong
The damage has still all been done
The world is a duller shade than it was before
Because my innocent beliefs have come undone
You took it away from me
