So innocent we are

[Roland Michel Tremblay]

So innocent we are

Am I talking
For so many nations
Am I talking
For you!

Yes Sir!
Yes Mam!
Whatever you say
It is done

As I have learned
To look so innocent
So clueless
As I have no brain

How is it possible
In such a world
That we have to pretend
To be of no intelligence
To be of no importance
To be so small
When we can
Potentially
Change the whole world?

One has to pretend
Up until a certain point
Where one has to act
And think the world that should be

So innocent
We all are
So powerful
We all are

As soon as we start thinking
As soon as we start acting
As soon as we feel it is time
As soon as we finally decide that’s it!

So innocent
We all look
So innocent
We all are

Until such time
That it is no longer possible
To pretend

Until such time
That one knows
Freedom is within reach

Then there is no more innocence
As perhaps there never was

So innocent we used to be
No longer
