Gone

Never home to fulfill her needs
Is it over?
Distance feeds anxiety
Is it over?
Another town I cry and hug my knees
Is it over?
The distance grows
I want to come back home
Another day away
Another fight you face alone
I'm gone
I'd like to save you from the pain
A thousand miles away
I'm gone
Mother's due for deadly news
Is it over?
Another night, medication and tubes
Is it over?
I wish I'd never seen cancer
I'd die just to find that answer
Is it over?
The distance grows
Her heartbeat's slow
Another day away
Another fight you face alone
I'm gone
I'd like to save you from the pain
A thousand miles away
I'm gone
I can't take this anymore
It won't be long
Keep holding strong
It won't be long now
Another day away
Another fight you face alone
I'm gone
Another day away
Another fight you face alone
I'm gone
I'd like to save you from the pain
A thousand miles away
I'm gone
