You Woke, I Waited

You woke, I waited
You stood, I stood by
You judged the distance
Examined the decline

“But why would you, a diamond” I say
“Run away from the sun”
Cause we could keep a tally
With each stretch we stretched to reach
The why, the why, the who, the how, the me, the you
Oh I could die some

When we are older, we’ll hear our bodies say
“Oh”
And we’ll find the mountain survived

I could be wiser
If I could speak stranger
This house will crack like
This mountain we reside

“But why would I” in silence I say
“Run away from the sun”
Cause we could keep a tally
With each stretch we stretched to reach
The why, the why, the who, the how, the me, the you
Oh I could die some

When we are older, we’ll hear our bodies say
“Oh”
And we’ll find the mountain survived
