| James McMurtry – Childish Things Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| The second verse isn't directly related to the first. It's about a kid dealing with his parents divorce. He sees his dad every other weekend and rides the trailways bus to where his dad is living. His parents are trying to make things seem like everything is okay, and he realizes it's not and has a lot of childish delusions broken. The ghosts are the childish thing according to his Aunt Clara. In the last verse it's heaven that's the childish thing, and the ghosts are really old memories of people from his past. | |
