Denial Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Born in '65
A bouncing baby boy
A million-dollar smile
A brand-new box of toys
Every mother's dream:
An innocent child to hold
Untarnished by humanity
Bright, naive, yet bold

[Pre-Chorus]
School came, he learned the meaning
Of joy and pain, misfortune, and gain
He'd ask questions about sex and life
Like, "Why is Daddy messing with his ex-wife?"

[Chorus]
Inner child's in denial
Inner child's in denial
Inner child's in denial
Inner child's in denial

[Verse 2]
Peer pressure took
Control of his life one day
What good he had left in his heart
Was stripped away
His parents got divorced
Left him out in the cold
Funny how we get so bitter
As we grow old

[Pre-Chorus]
The boy cried, his girl by his side
She's bold and bright, naive, uptight
Someday, he'd like to tie the knot
But the inner self remembers all that time forgot

[Chorus]
Inner child's in denial
Inner child's in denial
Inner child's in denial
Inner child's in denial

[Refrain]
Woah-oh!

[Solo]

[Chorus]
Inner child's in denial
Inner child's in denial
Inner child's in denial
Inner child's in denial
