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 eyes 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
