The End Of Innocence lyrics

We came out in our thousand

On that revolutionary day

Each person a hero

As the system crumbled away

We made a promise

To be truthful and honest

No more would those liars carry the day

We proclaimed a new era of liberty

And an end to the years of tyranny

We shouted 'Down with corrupt ideology!

Let us reclaim our own identity!'

Nothing could stop us

Nothing at all

The power of love would conquer all

(The power of love would conquer all)

Who among us then would have thought it

With all our hearts and minds we'd have fought it

But in the end we can't deny that we bought it

The end of innocence comes to us all

The big bad enemy defeated

We strove to get along

But no longer was it so simple

Telling right from wrong

Broken friendships

Made us cruelly aware

Freedom is a serious affair

(Freedom is a serious affair)

A page of history was turning

Flames of hope within us burning

But in the end the liberty we were yearning

Was far too much for all our spirits to bear

Who among us then would have thought it

With all our hearts and minds we'd have fought it

But in the end we can't deny that we bought it

The end of innocence comes to us all
