Текст песни Gone - Scarlet Monk , Tom Swifty

Pushin pain back, he walks train tracks and waits for the best to get better
He don't believe in laws, but he's obsessed with letters
He tested better than most, but fell off in school
Incensed, unfettered by hosts who led off with rules
That he couldn't obey, failure prolonged his stay
Until he fell, to hell with it is all he could say
Let's call it a day, he's fallen away from where his moms stay
His first taste of nothin left to lose, like the song say
And he's waiting for fading talents making way for nascent statements
Saving face and breaking stakes to stay above his station
And he's racing, tracing lazy footprints in the sand
Saving paper, chasing favors, trying to not be like his dad
And he's facing past mistakes he made when things were sacred
But he's lost his way to stay within the safety of his nature
So he wavers, contemplates and takes a brand-new savior
Paints his brain with H and hates and breaks to sublimate his hatred
And he's gone

Gone, baby, gone
So gone, baby, gone
Excuse me
Do I know you
Thought I knew you
Looking through you
Now you're gone
Gone, baby, gone

All the faces look the same
And I can't recall your name
All the faces look the same
And I can't recall
All the faces look the same
And I can't recall your name
All the faces look the same
And I can't recall

When she met him there was so much life inside him
Made her feel like she could envision a life beside him
From life's madness he tried to find an asylum
By diving inside the most beautiful mind he could find and
She reciprocated, hoping she could change him
But ultimately knowing they were both of a different nature
Opposites attract, but that attraction can fade
In his passion he made some mistakes, but he thought he'd fix it later
She was a morning person, a go-getter
Told her he could make a lunch date at noon, she knows better
An hour late's more what she got accustomed to
And tempers are combustible when faced with forever
But she's grateful for the little things, like when they had heat in the winter
Or when she didn't see roaches while she's eatin her dinner
Hard livin, but they had each other then
Now he tries to reach her and the sign reads: Gone Fishin
But she gave him his chance, it was a long audition
Over time, started feelin like he'd lost his ambition
Both such artists, once lovers at dawn
Each thinkin what they'd write about the other when the other was gone

Gone, baby, gone
So gone, baby, gone
So gone
