Tainted

I remember when I was just a little child
I remember when all of this felt so alive
I remember when I could see and I could smile
I remember when I would hope and I would try
I remember when I would stare out at the miles
I remember when I could fall deep in blue skies
I remember when I was just a little child
I remember when all of this felt so alive

Now I look around and all of this just feels like nothing
Now I look around and all of this is so declined
Now I look around and wonder why my heart feels nothing
Now I look around and wonder why the blue skies died
Now I look around, I realize that I've been tainted
Now I look around, I see the world through blurry eyes
Now I look around and all of this just feels like nothing
Now I look around and all of this is so declined
And all of this is so declined
