Lyrics Gone Away (Live 2021) - The Offspring

Many of you may have lost someone close to you
I know that I certainly have
And uh, when I've been singin' this song lately, I've been thinking about that
So if there's a someone in your life that you wanna remember and acknowledge
You hold up your phone and shine that light to uh, to remember that person
Anyway, here it is, this song's called, "Gone Away"

Maybe in another life
I could find you there
Pulled away before your time
I can't deal, it's so unfair

And it feels, and it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it feels, yeah, it feels like
The world has grown cold
Now that you've gone away

Leaving flowers on your grave
To show that I still care
Black roses and Hail Mary's
Can't bring back what's taken from me

I reach to the sky
And call on your name
And if I could trade, I would

And it feels, and it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it stings, and it stings now
The world is so cold
Now that you've gone away

Now that you've gone away

I reach to the sky
And call on your name
And if I could trade, I would

And it feels, and it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it feels, yeah, it feels like
The world has grown cold
Now that you've gone away
