if you lost everything in a moment would you notice? could you rebuild something so hopeless? are you hopeless?

and when you wake alone with no one left to hold you wont need to know all the things i know

paradise in every swimming pool paradise in every playground slide paradise fresh baked in the cookie jar

if i were you i would defend my innocence visually i would fight all that tried to rob me of that

because there's some things you just don't need to know

tragedy in the dentist's office tragedy in every skinned knee tragedy spilled all over the kitchen floor

i don't need a generation of burning on the ledge don't need your ancient wisdom two things i'll live without
