**[Intro]**
Yeah
Miss who I was before
Before I knew too much
Before my heart got torn
**[Chorus]**
Lost innocence, can't get it back
Young heart broke, now it's painted black
Smile outside while my mind collapses
Run from the past, but it pulls me back
Lost innocence, where did you go?
Too many nights I've been on my own
Love feels different when your heart turns cold
Still feel young, but my soul feels old
**[Verse 1]**
Used to see stars, now I stare at the roof
Used to trust words, now I question the truth
Everybody leaves, I got scars as proof
Had a heart full of gold, now it's covered in blue
Old pictures look like somebody I knew
Same face, different pain in the view
Had big dreams, didn't know what I'd lose
Now I pour every wound into the booth
Gave too much, got less in return
Crossed that bridge, then I watched it burn
Thought forever was something you earned
Now forever's a word I learned not to trust
Hear my old self calling my name
"How'd we get here? Why'd we change?"
I got no answer, just hurt and mistakes
Still searching for real in a world full of fake
**[Pre-Chorus]**
Grew up too fast
Can't take it back
If I saw young me
I'd say, "Guard that heart you have"
**[Chorus]**
Lost innocence, can't get it back
Young heart broke, now it's painted black
Smile outside while my mind collapses
Run from the past, but it pulls me back
Lost innocence, where did you go?
Too many nights I've been on my own
Love feels different when your heart turns cold
Still feel young, but my soul feels old
**[Verse 2]**
Mama said, "Don't let the world make you cold"
But it's hard when you're hurting alone
I got winter sitting deep in my soul
Still pray summer finds its way home
Days move quick, but the pain moves slow
Got thoughts in my head I don't ever show
Locked every door 'cause I already know
Soon as I love, somebody lets go
I don't need revenge, I just need peace
Need one good night where my mind can breathe
Miss that kid who believed so freely
Before every goodbye took something from me
Now I turn these scars into melodies
Turn bad memories into therapy
Maybe innocence had to leave
So I could become who I'm meant to be
**[Bridge]**
If I could see that kid tonight
I'd hold him close, say, "You'll be alright"
You're gonna lose people you thought were for life
You're gonna cry when nobody's in sight
But don't let heartbreak bury your soul
Don't let their leaving make your heart cold
One day these wounds won't have control
You'll lose your innocence—
**But you won't lose hope**
**[Final Chorus]**
Lost innocence, can't get it back
But I found my strength through every crack
Still got scars, I can live with that
Made something beautiful out of the bad
Lost innocence, maybe that's life
Lose who you were just to learn how to fight
Heart still heavy, but I'm still alive
Lost that kid—
But his dream survived
**[Outro]**
Yeah
His dream survived
Lost innocence
But I'm still alive
