Waking up was hard today 'cause I can't watch you waste away
everybody's lost someone but I don't want to learn the hard way
It's hard to believe you've become so weak
I can hardly hear you speak
these perfect words, oh, for perfect days
your softest voice was heard to say
It's not the end of the world
No it's not the end of the world
Only the end of an era
Only the end of being near her
but who's going to love you now?
Who's going to hold your aching heart in their hands
while they sit by you and you cry?
Fools shouldn't be allowed to love
Without you it feels hollow inside
So I'll just sit and wait to die
How can you even think to say
as I cry and you die and you waste away?
It's not the end of the world
No it's not the end of the world
Only the end of an era
Only the end of being near her
I wish I'd never learned to love
