You sort of just showed up one day, and never left.
We were like giants in that new world,
you knocked on my door and that was that.
That childlike wonder never quite escaped our minds.
We were like giants in that new world,
our parents let us out with money in our pockets.
That childlike wonder never quite escaped our minds.
Years ago, the sun shined differently—brighter.
Our parents let us out with money in our pockets,
what eventually happens to every kid, happened to us.
Years ago, the sun shined differently—brighter.
We both got mean.
What eventually happens to every kid, happened to us;
bright eyes began to cast judgemental glares.
We both got mean.
We bonded over it, I think—reveled in it.
Bright eyes began to cast judgemental glares.
We brush shoulders in the hallway and we understand,
we bonded over it, I think—reveled in it.
Maybe that innocence will find its way back to us, someday.
