Gone (Acoustic 2010)

Never home to fulfill her needs
Distance feeds anxiety
Another town, I cry and hug my knees
The distance grows
Wanna come back home

Another day away
Another fight you face alone
I'm gone
Well, I'm gone
I'd like to save you from the pain
A thousand miles away
I'm gone
Well, I'm gone

Mother's due for deadly news
(Is it over?)
Another night, medication and tubes
(Is it over?)
I wish I'd never seen cancer
I'd die just to find that answer
(Is it over?)
The distance grows
Her heartbeat's slow

Another day away
Another fight you face alone
I'm gone
Well, I'm gone
I'd like to save you from the pain
A thousand miles away
I'm gone
Well, I'm gone

I watched you crumble
I watched you fall
The weight of the world
It took it all
I remember your fight
I remember why
You never give in 'til it's time
So here's to the life
And here's to the loving
You showed me to be
And now I'm becoming
You may have never known how much you changed me
But I'll tell you this
The world will go on
Gone

Gone

Another day away
Another fight you face alone
I'm gone
Well, I'm gone
I'd like to save you from the pain
A thousand miles away
I'm gone

Gone
Gone

Gone
