Childish

We were kids

You always drove the bus

I knew that bus

Even long after your mom drove you away

We were kids

And I didn't have a phone

Meeting you was too hard

Without being in class

We were kids

And four provinces over

Too many differences

It just wouldn't work

Now I'm not a kid

There aren't parents driving or flying you away

It's just us, on our own

And yet I'm still losing you

This time it's neglect

I thought I could keep a friend forever,

If we were in the same place

But it turns out

I've never felt farther then

when you lived down the street
