Gone |
| I remember walking down the A406 |
| Holding bags of mother sent cornflakes |
| Guessing somebody might have noticed |
| A little boy big head small ears |
| Whilst making a ballad through a Sunday mist |
| Sure we’ve all been there, done it |
| Prepare a little time to reminisce |
| On all that eventually falls into nothingness |
| Oh, all will be gone |
| After all |
| Before we all get to the knowing |
| All will be gone |
| I went back to where life seemed promising at first |
| Gambling on memory’s lane |
| I tried a trip through all the pavement, fields |
| But I lost cause all had changed |
| Like the road I used to cross to school |
| Is now full of prostitutes |
| No wonder why the priest is dead |
| No wonder why the priest is dead |
| Oh brother, when did you get married? |
| Neighbours, where did you vanish to? |
| If it was to a wonderland |
| Well, it’s not known to my kind, mankind |
| All will be gone |
| After all |
| Before we all get to the knowing |
| All will be gone |
| And what about relationships? |
| What is it about relationships that we just don’t get? |
| Here we are always thinking we’ve learnt |
| Only to get smacked and realize we are |
| But mere students of life |
| And it feels like |
| We’ve been fighting a lost battle |
| To have always realized at the end of it all |
| It feels like |
| We’ve been brought to a royal banquet |
| Just to be served a brew and a wretched floor |
| But I say |
| I say |
| It doesn’t matter anymore |
| It doesn’t matter |
| It doesn’t matter |
| All because I’m here now |
| I can’t go back, it’s too late |
| And so I will get it all going |
| Whilst it all gets lost and gone |
