Woke Up Older - 5 North

The world starts shrinking slow
Collapsing like a pinhole
And don't you know, don't you know
There's no promise for tomorrow
Just weeks ago we all drove home on 5 North
You looked me in the eye and said when it was time
You'd be ready to go
I'm running short on strength to walk alone
A downpour a thousand miles from home
Did you think it was worth it
Did you think it was worth it
I finally saw your face
Brushed over like a wax fake
It wasn't you, wasn't you
Just the skin you shed on your way
You said that we should dance, but you won't get the chance
To see all of the lives you changed
We're all here, we miss you
We watched your best years burn and fade away
I'm running short on strength to walk alone
A downpour a thousand miles from home
Did you think it was worth it
Did you think it was worth it
Sobbing on my bathroom floor
Shattered by days you'll never know
Did you think it was worth it
Did you think it was worth it
To shine so bright
Your flame burned out before you reached your time
So cold inside
The warmth you left forgotten in the night with no goodbyes
Rainfall of flowers on your grave
Each bud a heart that you had changed
I'll never be the same
I'll bloom and grow the seeds you laid
Loosen my grip on the chrysanthemum they gave me
Watched it slowly fall away
I watched you slowly fall away
It'll never be the same
