you knew you were lost

Slow down little one
You can't keep running away
You mustn't go outside yet
It's not your time to play

Standing at the edge of your town
With the skylight in your eyes
Reaching out to gods
The sun says it’s goodbyes

I push my hand up to the sky
Shade my eyes from the sun
As the dust settles around me
Suddenly night time has begun

Come on now
You knew you were lost
But you carried on anyway
Oh come on now
You knew you had no time
But you let the day drift away
