What ever happened to that little boy I once knew Enthusiastic and wide eyed With your blinding smile and cornflower hair You kept all my dreams alive
What ever happened to the boy I grew up with The one who swore he’d stay the same But I guess you’re better off without me now I guess you grew tired of our old games
When you get down past the fake friends And the petty indulgences you now need to survive You are still the same little boy you always were I see that uniqueness you now try to hide
You look like a photograph of yourself One taken from so far away And you’ll ignore my tears and fears And disregard everything I say
Could you take a second to spare me a glance And look me in the eyes when you do Fooling the world with your casual stride And that beautiful mask I see straight through
Though my opinion doesn’t matter And I am nothing to who you now are I still miss that little boy Who changed and broke my heart
Inspired by both my brother and Joe who both seem to be changing in ways I don't like... |
