Chorus:

We all need to say goodbye to innocence

It's just a childhood fancy

Goodbye to innocence

At one time we all gotta say goodbye

Goodbye to innocence

We all gotta say, we all gotta say

Goodbye to innocence

And though this is true

I can't bear to leave it behind

Just a few short years ago

I had my whole life ahead of me

And now that I am grown

I have grown so afraid

I've said goodbye to many things

But the one thing I always thought would stay

Has up and went and walked away

And I find...

Chorus

Simple, fickle life of mine

Always the one who was left behind

Chaos and disorder ruled my life

My whole life I spent terrified

Sometimes people are so cold

I never meant to be so bold

In my, in my choice of speech

I never thought I'd feel so weak

Bridge:

So weak

(So weak)

Things I thought they would get better

The age of innocence has disappeared

Out of my life

And now that's why

I know I gotta say goodbye
