I didn't expect anything and you didn't either.
We don't like to be held (you physically, me metaphorically).
We're in love with the same person.
We are losing them for the same reasons.
We are losing us in the same season.
Golden Boy Gone
Mr. Sunshine and bouncing Sun Drop…
You started scared and I started bold,
Now we're the opposite and both have grown old.
Golden Boy Gone
Do you ever wish you could be different but can't?
I do.
Sometimes you run with such precious interest
I am as stagnant as you're filled with unrest.
I am as flagrant in leaving my once best
As you are in biting the good hand I attest.
Golden Boy Gone
Paws and feet, your back feet are bigger than my heart
My mouth is too small to fit mine
Your brain is too small know right
If only I had put my feet in my mouth
If only you could put your feet in my hands
We would both be fine if we could both understand.
If I had just understood, upon your arrival
How to teach us to do good, just to be more insightful.
Now we are both walking into the sunset
Two pieces of sunshine thrown back in the upset.
Golden Boy Gone
I blame you as much as I blame me.
I know its our fault,
but rodents aren't all that they're cut out to be.
So if I raised you from a small place
And made you gold and gave you light
In using all the love I had
How did neither of us turn out right?
Golden Boy Gone
Soon, when you raise your bright head
In new foreign places
And ask, who am I supposed to be now?
Who made all these cages?
Then we'll feel the same things
We'll both be ablaze with
The gold dawn of new suns
And not one of us blameless.
