I don't miss God

I don't miss God
but I do miss innocence
those years spent
wanting
dreaming
hoping
I want them all back

I don't miss God
but I do miss innocence
years yearning
for adulthood
making bad choices
I want them all back

I don't miss God
but I do miss innocence,
before the first blood
before the first cut in
my virginal white skin
I want it all back

I don't miss God
but I do miss innocence
before time mattered
and the hardest thing
was homework
I want it all back

I want God to put it right
what he got so wrong
leaving me here alone
I want my innocence
I want my life
I want it all back
