Innocence - Björk

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 is 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 is 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 is still here

But in different places
