Jerry Cantrell - Gone lyrics

Written by Jerry Cantrell

All dreams have died along the way

I coughed up the price, I bought a cage

I've had a hell of a time since I went away

Don't know when I died or where to lay down

Gone, gone away

Yeah, gone, gone away

God knows I've tried, I'm dyed in pain

Strong yet simple drive, the freedom to say

I've had a hell of a time since I went away

Homing on traces of light, that distance fades

Repeat chorus

So they say with time we slowly heal

I caught a flash of your smile through the fog of a dream

I'll have a hell of a time, I clearly see

I can't be by your side, see you when I sleep

Now you're gone...gone away

Yeah you're gone...gone away
