Gone

You are all defining me

Like you know me inside out

And if I let it get to me

You'd damage me beyond repair

And I have always done my best

To block it out and keep myself

But lately it has been so hard

And I don't know where I end and you start

These are the words that I have bled

These are the tears that I have shed

These are the bleak roads that I dread

This is the home which they led

Can you hear me now?

Can you see me now?

Can you touch me now?

Deep inside I'm gone

Deep inside I'm gone

Deep inside I'm gone

Deep inside I'm gone

And I have given more than most

I've fucking overdosed on honesty

But then when I've given everything

Then what will there be left of me?

And who'll stand by this troubled man

With a burning mind and a fever inside?

See, if I cannot direct this flame

It might just burn everything in its way

These are the words that I have bled

These are the tears that I have shed

These are the bleak roads that I dread

This is the home which they led

Can you hear me now?

Can you see me now?

Can you touch me now?

Deep inside I'm gone

Deep inside I'm gone

Deep inside I'm gone

Deep inside I'm gone --

I just never seem to be enough

You're too many mouths to feed

Too many reached out hands to hold

Too many broken hearts to heal

And in the end, I'll spread too thin

And gently over-bleed

Sadly overestimating

The amount of me

I let you crawl into my head

I let you crawl under my skin

I let you taste every tear I've shed

I'm always letting you right in --

So crawl over the words I've bled

I'm not really there

Undress and crawl into my bed

I'm not really there

I'm gone

Oh yeah...

You see, deep inside I'm gone
