BJORK LYRICS - Innocence

"Innocence"



I once had no fears

None at all

And then when

I had some



To my surprise

I grew to like both

Scared or brave

Without them



The thrill of fear

Thought I'd never admit it

The thrill of fear

Now greatly enjoyed with courage



When I once was

Untouchable

Innocence roared

Still amazes



When I once was

Innocent

It's still here

But in different places



Neurosis

Only

Attaches

Itself to

Fertile

Ground

Where it can flourish



The thrill of fear

Thought I'd never admit it

The thrill of fear

Now greatly enjoyed with courage



When I once was

Fearless

Innocence roared

Still amazes



Untouchable

Innocence

It's still here

But in different places



Fear is a powerful drug

Overcome it and

You think that you can do

Anything!



Should I

Save myself

For later

Or generously give?



Fear of

Losing

Energy

Is draining



It locks up your chest

Shuts down the heart

Miserly

And stingy

Let's open up : share!



When I once was

Fearless

Innocence roared

Still amazes



Untouchable

Innocence

It's still here

But in different places
