lyrics

little one,
don’t you sigh.
you’ve got your whole life
ahead of you.

little one,
you’re dragging your feet
through the puddles in the street,
in your best shoes.

little one,
your heart is gold,
but you’ve never been told
about it.

so you walk
across town
with your eyes fixed to the ground,
without it.

and you can’t help but feel
like the smallest one.
but you can’t let these
fears become
loaded guns,
pointing towards the sun.

little one,
you got caught in a whirl,
now you’re scared to talk to girls,
and strangers.

little one,
now there’s a hole in your heart –
it was your brain that threw the dart
that made it.

and all of your thoughts
get scattered and lost
within your head,
so you don’t talk.

and all of your friends
wonder where you’ve been;
the more time passes,
the less you see them.

and it carries on.
yeah, it carries on.
it carries on and on.

yeah, it carries on.
it carries on;
one day you’ll wake up,
and everything’s gone.

and you can’t help but feel
like the smallest one.
but you can’t let these
fears become
loaded guns,
pointing towards the sun.
