When the world turns black

It all seems too easy

Wishing when it could turn back

And I know this sounds cheesy

But I miss when I didn’t know

How horrible the world was

When I had stuffed animals to hold

And the only evil I knew was jaws

To be young and niaeve to world around you

To only wonder who are you going to play with at recess today

Before the world changed your point of view

All your vulnerabilities on display

And in a moment though you didn’t know it

It would be your last ordeal

To wonder where the color of life had slipped

It was all becoming real
