After Midnight Project - Backlit Medley

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?
