Out of Sync
I used to know you so well
You were a part of me
You’d braid my hair sometimes
We’d partner up in PE
So I keep wondering
Gosh, what happened in between?
Can walls rise high enough
And storms come crashing violent
To separate once close friends
Why do these even exist?
And before I realize it
You're now completely different
Once a girl we barely knew
Somebody from a far town
I'm looking up at you now
Wearing the homecoming crown
Yet we’re both pieced-together train wrecks
Shadows of our former selves
Hate to admit it
That we’re farther than we started out
I know I’ll never guess
What it was I didn’t say
‘Cause if I knew
I wouldn't be so shy today.
