You're Just Gone - ArlenaZara
I keep checking my phone now
Like it knows some secret code
To bring you back to me and
Lighten up the load
The couch still holds a dent from
Where you used to sit
I'm picking at the threads now
Piece by piece, bit by bit
I'm waiting for the punchline, the moment you return
A lesson in devotion that I refuse to learn
But the air is growing colder, the silence is too deep
And I'm the only one here who has promises to keep
Cause you're just gone
Baby, a simple final truth
Erased from this existence
Vanished with your youth
There's no grand disaster, no screaming, crashing plane
Just the quiet, empty knowledge that you're not coming again
No explanation offered, no final long goodbye
Just the absence of your presence beneath this empty sky
Yeah, you're just gone
And I'm just trying to figure out
How to breathe
The time moves on around me
The world keeps spinning fast
They tell me to move forward
To leave the tragic past
But every street corner is a memory of your face
I'm trapped within the confines of this lonely empty place
I try to scrub the counters, I try to clean the glass
To erase the signs of us, to let the moments pass
But you didn't leave a forwarding address
You didn't leave a trace
Just the absence of your laughter, the absence of your grace
Cause you're just gone
Baby, a simple final truth
Erased from this existence
Vanished with your youth
There's no grand disaster, no screaming, crashing plane
Just the quiet, empty knowledge that you're not coming again
No explanation offered, no final long goodbye
Just the absence of your presence beneath this empty sky
I tell everyone just to hide out, I'm just trying to find
To know you didn't vanish from the whole of space and time
But all I have is silence, a heavy empty space
Haunted by the memory of your sweet, sweet face
Cause you're just gone
Baby, a simple final truth
Erased from this existence
Vanished with your youth
There's no grand disaster, no screaming, crashing plane
Just the quiet, empty knowledge that you're not coming again
No explanation offered, no final long goodbye
Just the absence of your presence beneath this empty sky
Yeah, you're just gone
And I'm just trying to figure out
How to breathe
The silence is too loud
You're just gone
Lost within the crowd
You're just gone
And I'm just here alone
A statue made of stone
You're just gone
