Goodnight Childsprite

I fell out of step with everyone I was so focused on floating through the spring I watched them all kiss in the distance So painfully real, half naked and bristling In their haven beneath the canopy The home they built in a day And from the outside in, they looked nothing like me All together, so sweet and so free I fell out of step with everyone But they never noticed a thing I weaved a whole world around theirs And I never told them where I had been But of course they couldn't stay They were never really there anyway And there was only one secret they hid How easy it is to find love, and to let yourself in And it's funny At least I laugh because it's true I still come running right back to you
