End of Innocence - Iced Earth

Through the essence of your smile

Makes this fight all worthwhile

Oh the perseverance of your life

There you were by my side

Giving me strength through your love and pride

She says carry on carry on

Oh the stars they shine so bright

Are they there for you and I

I know you see the light

Carry on be strong my son

This is the end of innocence

Carry on when I'm gone

This is the end of innocence

This is the end my friend

Sacrifice is all we have

Finding solace in your laugh

The freedom will ease your pain

Washing tides and season change

Things will never be the same

Oh she says carry on carry on

Carry on be strong my son

This is the end of innocence

Carry on when I'm gone

This is the end of innocence

This is the end

Carry on be strong my son

This is the end of innocence

Carry on when I'm gone

This is the end of innocence

This is the end

Carry on be strong my son

This is the end of innocence

Carry on when I'm gone

This is the end of innocence
