The Headlight Child

We used to be inseparable friends
We both dropped out of Sunday school
I couldn’t believe it
I didn’t want to stay
You used to roam around in the bush
Pretending it was Hindu cush
I can still see it
Like it was today
Yeah, I’m the same now
Yeah, but you’re different
We cannot blame
Now everything’s changed
I’m just a stranger now
You used to hang around at Hackett Tip
The land was moving like a ship
I could not fathom how we didn’t fall
We used to wait for butterflies
Autumn coming through the Summer skies
The moon was rising and surprising us all
Yeah, I’m the same now
Yeah, but you’re different
Who can I blame
Now everything’s changed now
You’re just a stranger
Everything’s changed and
Yeah, I’m the same now
Yeah, but you’re different
Who can I blame
Now everything’s changed
You’re just a stranger
Everything’s changed now
We used to skate on the thin ice
We used to laugh and throw the dice
We used to laugh and ask questions later
We used to dress up as each other
Now we were closer than two brothers
We caught a mermaid but we never ate her
We used to think we were immortal
We disappear in different portals
You jump right in, I kind of made a trailer
