Gone is the day
I don't need it anyway
Lost here in the night
Nothing said, nothing to say
I could just leave this earth forever
These feelings would have to stay
Silent is the sound
Of this trembling, crumbling ground
Shaken by a word
No more talking, pass it around
If only my heart had lived to join me
If love could come falling down
Bless the wind that moves this storm
But damn the thunder
Bathe me in your waters warm
Don't pull me under
Lift me up and touch my soul
I need forgiving
Raise me from this sinking hole
Until I'm living
Gone is the day
Gone is the day
I don't need, I don't want
No more will to carry on
Gone is the day
Gone is the day
