Remember when the days fell long
And rolled beneath a deep blue sky

We didn't have a care in the world

With mommy and daddy standing by

Happily ever after fails
We're poisoned by these fairy tales
Lawyers dwell on small details
Since daddy had to fly

But I know a place where we can go

Still untouched by man

We'll sit and watch the clouds go by

The tall grass wave in the wind

You can lay your head back on the ground

Let your hair fall all around

Offer up your best defense

But this is the end

This is the end

This is the end of the innocence

Oh beautiful for spacious skies
Turn small and fint it threatening
We're beating plowshares into swords
But two coward leader kill a king
Armchair warriors often fail
We've been poisoned by these fairytales
Lawyers clean up all details
Since daddy had to die
But I know a place where we can go
Strip down to the skin
We'll sit and watch the clouds flow high
All tall grass stress in the wind

You lay your head back on the ground

Let your hair spill all around me
Offer up your best defense
This is the end

This is the end

I will come and find you where you lie
I will take you there
We'll go tonight

Leave lawyers nothing to rely
And curtain scram by candle light
I need to remember this
Thing that might not even exsit
It's just some rich man's town sitting
But my heart broke every line

You can drive to a hiding place i know
I will allow dead ends
Nothing tripped there long ago
Now it's just a place that i rent
I will be there you hear it is hanging down
You've been tired out
You've been run around
You could watching all the hope dream now
The faces of your old school friends
He will hold you close
He will whisper in day
This is the end

You know
This is the end

This is the end of the innocence
