Backlit Medley (After Midnight Project)

From the beginning I drew pictures Of the searching sun Blissfully denying what is instinct Since the beginning I've seen color But lately it's been tainted With grays and under-glows A constant fight With who I am And who I have to be Forgive me for the fool that I've become I take back the stupid things I've done And how do we keep our innocence From burning away? A backlit medley of hello and goodbyes Our trip-wire catching There's good in every try A constant fight With who I am And who I have to be Forgive me for the fool that I've become I take back the stupid things I've done How do we keep our innocence From burning away? One kiss No words Toxic melody Creeps through my body Wrapped in your lips Paint my future Please forgive me for the fool that I've become I take back the stupid things I've done How do we keep our innocence From burning away? I'm tired of trying How long will it take To break away From all of my dirty mistakes? And how do we keep our innocence From burning away?
