Innocent Maneuvers Lyrics

You were looking around at your friends and the functions
Ain't it funny how time slips away
You were the star of a movie, the morals within it
The pride he spoke, you had nothing to sayWe were both looking for something bigI was asking around about a girl that I used to know
We were twins when we were young but she changed
We were both bound by numbers and the spirit of logic
Somewhere she found Jesus and the math went awayHey I'm not one that would question your faith
We both have our problems oh yeah yours are just a matter of tasteSo look around you
With your petty allegiances and your miracle drugs
You were stuck in the rain you were waiting for summer
The seasons don't change and you're not getting younger
You think your manifest truth is just shadings of colors
But these were innocent maneuvers
We were young
Yeah we were youngSo we play with the truth till we all may remember
There's no shame when your conscience is clear
And this kerosene light has been put to the spot
Slow but I wonder that we got there from hereHey its' a contract you keep with your self

It's a slight misdirection to crying eyes
And you can pin all the blame on somebody elseSo look around you
With your petty allegiances and your miracle drugs
You were stuck in the rain you were waiting for summer
The seasons don't change yeah the days just get longer
You think your manifest truth is just shadings of color
These were innocent maneuvers
I don't blame you for wanting someone to look up to
I'm not a role model just do what you gotta doThese were innocent maneuvers
We were young
Yeah, we were young
