It's Worth It (For Leo)

The world has a way of making you dizzy

So you keep your head down and you keep yourself busy

You pass through the day in your own kind of way

And you hope at the end of your time you can say it was worth it

Though no single day will be perfect

Sometimes you'll find that the sea of your mind

Is a tempest so cruel that it leaves you entwined

On the shoreline your heart will come searching

And it'll be worth it

 

Time has a way of tearing you down

A life come and gone on a rock spinning round

It pushes and pulls you in thousands of ways

Until you're silvered and quiet like a long winter's day but it's worth it

Though no single day will be perfect

Open your eyes your eyes up as wide as the sky

You can never go back again though you may try and you might spend your whole lifetime searching

But it'll be worth it

  

The heart has a way of letting you know

That memory fades then it leaves you alone

But that bloody red beacon inside of your chest is the light that the ones in your life love the best

And it's worth it

And if one single memory is perfect

Then those left behind will together in kind take their spades to the dirt and unearth it

And it'll be worth it
