Gone

well the changing of the guard is oh so real
but before i go i wanna tell you how i feel
i gave you the chance to build a life worth living
but you cut off the love like a vine that can never grow back

oh i used to go away
and come back
back another day
but now i don't know how long
i'm gonna be gone
yeah
yeah
but i'm gonna be gone
yeah
yeah

well i hung on like a dog for life and limb
and the burning house casts shapes upon the scrim
i gave you the chance to build a life worth building
but you smashed all the plants up and now they can never grow back

you had fun stringing me along
but oh no player you were wrong
but now i don't know how long
i'm gonna be gone
yeah
yeah
but i'm gonna be gone
yeah
yeah

now woman
i wanna tell you something
i ain't never
seen the likes
of you before
so i was willing, to stand still, while you pushed me
will you find me
pushing me
out the door
so i wanna hear you say it
(say it, yeah)
yeah wanna hear you beg me
(say it, yeah)

oh i used to go away
and come back
back another day
but now i don't know how long
i'm gonna be gone
yeah
yeah
but i'm gonna be gone
yeah
yeah
but i'm gonna be gone
yeah
yeah
but i'm gonna be gone
yeah
