Gone

I have seen the smoke spread like a cloud
Taking everything I love underneath its shroud
Why do you lie?
In my dream the powder drifts like snow
I try to hold on but you are carried away
I saw you try
Ch. Oh…gone
V.
No one wants to answer the door
Far away the city lights hide all the fights
You were alone
The kind of violence I don’t see
He said that he tried, he said that there might have been a gun
You were gone
Ch.
Br.
In my heart, I wish I hadn’t seen the dark side
Of that night
But we were caught, in the middle of a storm so heavy
There wasn’t a chance to do things right
Ch.
V.
What little happiness I could give
Was sifted away into the corner of your mind
Until better times
And the day finally comes to say goodbye
I wonder when I’ll ever see you again
If you’ll survive
Oh, I know it’s time to let go
The hands inside clenched tight, the grudge burning bright
So bright
