What Adults Do

I kick the sand on your beach and shout into space
Truth sucks lies out like a leech and leaves scars in its place
Never loved or hurt someone as I have you
Tonight beginning has begun, it's harsh and new

Is this what life is like? Is it what adults do?
Never loved or hurt someone as I have you

Standing on the dunes above, she calls me to come back
“You've dropped this bombshell, now come share the flack”

Is this how adults hurt? Too late, I understand
Turn my back on Bass Straight and walk back up the sand
