LONG GONE

Sometimes I give up

Sometimes I go cold

Then in a hot minute

I'll let it all go

This time it's gonna be different

This time I'm coming home

I've waited so long for something that I'll never know

Maybe then you'll admit it

You're missing out on the whole show

By the time you get into it, it'll be time to go

I wish that things had been different

I wouldn't have spent this time

Dreaming of a better life that'd never be mine

Daytime has come and gone

Still ain't feeling right

I'm drowning in a shadow

And melting in the light

Maybe you'll forget it

The story's getting old

And you ain't got no time to worry about my soul

Maybe now you'll get it

Why I chose to leave

See, I ain't got no poker face

And my heart is on my sleeve

By the time I jump in

The river will run dry

I'll do it anyway to say I tried

And maybe you'll regret it

For missing out on my life

By the time you call my name

I'll be riding high

Backed into a corner

See my crooked smile

I've been waiting for this moment

For more than a little while

In another hot minute

I hate to cramp your style

But I'm taking this shot to break your heart

We'll echo in the sky

By the time I jump in

The river will run dry

I'll do it anyway to say I tried

And maybe then you'll get it

Why I gave up my life

By the time you hear this song

I'll be long gone

Maybe you'll regret it

For the rest of your life

By the time you hear this song

I'll be long gone

Long gone
