lyrics

"Dead and Gone" (D.Blood)

I'm weighing in my head
Every word you've said
You don't have to carry on
And when that's said and done
Just like the setting sun
It won't last here very long

I don't want to know
How this garden grows
Take that arrow from its mark
It's always in my head
And so misunderstood
My heart is heavy as a rock

And it was hard to keep dreams alive
I knew I couldn't be that kind of guy

When I'm dead and gone
Throw my tapes and clothes on the lawn
No more fighting for the dawn
You will just have to stand strong

Everyone can see
Everyone but me
And who's still laughing anyway?
So don't come knockin' here
There ain't nobody there
Give my blessing to the dogs

And it was hard to keep dreams alive
I knew I couldn't be that kind of guy

When I'm dead and gone
Throw my tapes and clothes on the lawn
No more fighting for the dawn
You will just have to stand strong

Carry on, carry on, carry on....
