I'm Never Gone


 

Blood drips above your lips

Your heart beats in hyper drive

We’ll reach the sky when it is dawn

You’ll never cry because I’m never gone

 

I’m never gone

Time goes on

Sixteen

Never seen

My time is long

Standing strong

He’s doing wrong

I’m never gone

 

You say it’s true, that he’s abusing you

When you’re with me, you’ll find serenity 

I can never die, as long as you’re the pawn

You will never cry, because I’m never gone

 

 I’m never gone

Time goes on

Sixteen

Never seen

My time is long

Standing strong

He’s doing wrong

I’m never gone

 

You say you want him near

I said he can’t be here

He gets high smoking on your lawn

You will never cry because I’m never gone

 

He’s not worth it

You can’t take it

You’ll find peace along the way

As time moves on

And you get strong

And you’ll be safe forever again 

 

I’m never gone

Time goes on

Sixteen

Never seen

My time is long

Standing strong

He’s doing wrong

I’m never gone

 

I’m never gone

Time goes on

Sixteen

Never seen

My time is long

Standing strong

He’s doing wrong

I’m never gone
