*Gone*....

"Gone"

What you see's not what you get
With you there's just no measurement
No way to tell what's real from what isn't there
Your eyes they sparkle
That's all changed into lies that drop like acid rain
You washed away the best of me
You don't care

You know you did it
I'm gone
To find someone to live for
In this world
There's no light at the end of the tunnel tonight
Just a bridge that I gotta burn
You're wrong
If you think you can walk right through my door
That is just so you
Coming back when I've finally moved on
I'm already gone

Sometimes shattered
Never open
Nothing matters
When you're broken
That was me whenever I was with you
Always ending
Always over
Back and forth, up and down like a rollercoaster
I am breaking
That habit
Today

You know you did it
I'm gone
To find someone to live for
In this world
There's no light at the end of the tunnel tonight
Just a bridge that I gotta burn
You're wrong
If you think you can walk right through my door
That is just so you
Coming back when I've finally moved on
I'm already gone

There is nothing you can say
Sorry doesn't cut it, babe
Take the hint and walk away
'Cause I'm gone
Doesn't matter what you do
It's what you did that's hurting you
All I needed was the truth
Now I'm gone

What you see's not what you get
What you see's not what you get

You know you did it
I'm gone
To find someone to live for
In this world
There's no light at the end of the tunnel tonight
Just a bridge that I gotta burn
You're wrong
If you think you can walk right through my door
That is just so you
Coming back when I've finally moved on
I'm already gone
I'm already gone
Oh, I'm already gone, gone, gone, gone
Already gone
IM GONE!!

Watch Her Disappear

Last night I dreamed that I was dreaming of you...
And from a window across the lawn I watched you
Wearing a sunset of purple tightly woven around your hair
That rose in strangled ebony curls
moving in a yellow bedroom light.
The air is wet with sound.
The faraway yelping of a wounded dog.
And the ground is drinking a slow faucet leak.
Your house is so soft and fading
as it soaks the black summer heat.
A light goes on and the door opens.
And a yellow cat runs out on the stream of hall light
and into the yard.

A wooden cherry scent is faintly breathing the air.
I hear your champagne laugh.
You wear two lavender orchids,
one in your hair and one on your hip.
A string of yellow carnival lights
comes on with the dusk,
Circling the lake with a slowly dipping halo
and I hear a banjo tango.

And you dance into the shadow of a black poplar tree
And I watched you as you disappeared.
I watched you as you disappeared.
I watched you as you disappeared.
I watched you as you disappeared.
--Tom Waits
