Gone Away
Offspring · Ixnay On The Hombre
Maybe in another life
I could find you there
gone away before your time
I can't deal it's so unfair
And it feels
Yeah it feels like
heaven's so far away
And it feels
Yeah it feels like
the world has grown cold
Now that you've gone away
Leaving flowers on your grave
Show that I still care
(But) black roses and hail marys
Can't bring back what's taken from me
I reach to the sky
And call out your name
and if I could trade
I would
And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it stings
Yeah it stings now
(The) world is so cold
Now that you've gone away
Gone away, gone away, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Ouuhhh, ouhhh, ouhh yeah
I reach to the sky
And call out your name
oh please let me trade
I would
And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it feels
Yeah it feels like
(The) world is so cold
Now that you've gone away
GoneaAway, gone away, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Ouuhhh, ouhhh, ouhh ohh oh yeah
I could find you there
gone away before your time
I can't deal it's so unfair
And it feels
Yeah it feels like
heaven's so far away
And it feels
Yeah it feels like
the world has grown cold
Now that you've gone away
Leaving flowers on your grave
Show that I still care
(But) black roses and hail marys
Can't bring back what's taken from me
I reach to the sky
And call out your name
and if I could trade

And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it stings
Yeah it stings now
(The) world is so cold
