Innocence (BBC In Concert 5th Nov 1990) - New Model Army

Chorus:

We scream, you run — fall out

You scream and we’re gone — falling out

There must have been times in the smoke and the beat on the dance-floor

When all of the doors, they were opening for you

There must have been times when you thought you were kings of the whole world

With the chemicals eating away at your reason

But now you’re shut down, closed in We build our own little jails

I’ve had to watch this thing so many times

Another little death of innocence

Chorus:

Now, we scream, you run — fall out

You scream and we’re gone — falling out

None of us saw the clever image you hold of yourselves

The things that you thought were so cool were just a joke to everyone else

Didn’t they tell you when you pulled a stupid expression

That when the wind changed you’d be stuck with it forever?

And now you’re shut down, closed in, with all the money you owe

I’ve had to watch this thing so many times

Another little death of innocence

Chorus:

We scream, you run — fall out

You scream and we’re gone — falling out
