When I’m Gone(song lyrics)
ive tried to break up out these chains
But i cant shoulder all this pain
A greater power called my name
Told me cam dont got to stay
You can fade away your stories never will alleviate
I cant escape my own thoughts each night interrogated
Rarely ate or slept for weeks and now my sunshine scared away
I dont blame a single soul for not having patience to stay
Now im back to sqaure one no motivation contained
In my heart i wish to love but all this pain is breeding hate
Gradually I seal my fate locked away in a breifcase
For my past ive overpaid and those i trust always betray
my own mind dug my grave i hope i can peacefully lay
I hope a gentle touch can come erase these tears from my face
but my hope feeling misplaced as i know im not embraced
They say ive grown at great rate yet i see no progress made
happiness i cant portray so many notice its fake
dont feel ive got any friends only those that tolerate
When im gone
dont you cry and dont you worry
You were not a burden i am just not what this earth need
Ive been alone alive so whats the difference six feet deep
The only thing that freed me is stories on this loose leaf
So when im gone dont you plead for me i found peace
To the few of you that loved me dont let these tears stream
When im gone its your smiles that will relieve me
It wasnt you it was my own mind that defeated me
When im gone know i didnt give up easily some things just aint meant to be
And yes i speak regretfully
when im gone remember me through the stories i told and the man that i tried to be
Im truly sorry
This my last song before my last breath
The next day i Awake could be my day of death
It may be selfish but im so fucking desparate for affection
Depression hangs over my head and got the skies crowded
With clouds so dark the back of my eyelids too bright
Thats why im awake through the night
i pick up my pen and write
But only her voice made it right i knew i was dependent
My feelings werent intended but that history been written
I needed more than a friend but that just couldnt be given
My anger shouldnt have been driven just for her different intentions
All my ruined friendships remind me the kid inside me died before he ever lived
Thats why im shifting my attention to breathless visions
I dont possess my ambition i only wish to see a coffin
Fitted perfectly for me to rest in
My talents not developing they only delay the destined end to this
When im gone
dont you cry and dont you worry
You were not a burden i am just not what this earth need
Ive been alone alive so whats the difference six feet deep
The only thing that freed me is stories on this loose leaf
So when im gone dont you plead for me i found peace
To the few of you that loved me dont let these tears stream
When im gone its your smiles that will relieve me
It wasnt you it was my own mind that defeated me
When im gone know i didnt give up easily some things just aint meant to be
And yes i speak regretfully
when im gone remember me through the stories i told and the man that i tried to be
Im truly sorry
