"A 12 Speed I Called Innocence" lyrics

"A 12 Speed I Called Innocence"

Time is a mother
And she teaches us abandonment
Once we discover we're alive
We find one another
In a beautiful entanglement
Lost in the blinking of an eye

And I don't wanna go
Wanna go where I came here from
'Cause I don't wanna build every bridge
That I burned growing up

I don't remember how it feels to be a kid
Walking a razors edge between
The devastation and magic
Sun in my face
Flying away
On a 12 speed I called innocence
With nothing to fear in the world
And I never said I loved you back
When we were kids
But I wish I did
I wish I did

Youth is a mirror
Unaware of imperfection and
It lies looking straight in your eye
Filled with a terror
So alone you can't imagine it
Fragile as a flower
Till you die

I don't remember how it feels to be a kid
Walking a razors edge between
The devastation and magic
Sun in my face
Flying away
On a 12 speed I called innocence
With nothing to fear in the world
And I never said I loved you back
When we were kids
But I wish I did
I wish I did

And I don't wanna know
Wanna know where my pain came from
'Cause I'm trying to forget all the bliss
When my heart was still young

And I don't remember how it feels to be a kid
Walking a razors edge between
The devastation and magic
Sun in my face
Flying away
On a 12 speed I called innocence
With nothing to fear in the world
And I never said I loved you back
When we were kids
But I wish I did
I wish I did

We were riding
In the silence
Of a summertime midnight moonlight
We were riding
We were flying on
We were riding
In the vibrance
Of a once in a lifetime romance
We were riding
We were flying on
