Innocence Faded Lyrics

Cover art for Innocence Faded lyrics by Dream Theater

Growing up. Loss of innocence and the feeling that the world is becoming all too real for the first time. Being annoyed with the occurrences in life that all adolescents go through when they begin losing their innocence. There really seems to be a straight and direct connection between title and meaning in this one, as the entire song references heavily to the process of growing up and slowly entering adulthood. Considering that Kevin Moore wrote this, he could have also been writing metaphorically about how his connection with the rest of Dream Theater was fading.

My Interpretation

"Considering that Kevin Moore wrote this"... except, IIRC, John Petrucci wrote this song.
