About Going Going Gone, Dacus said, “I did have someone in mind when I was writing it, but I wanted to write about the cycle of boy-girl, man-woman, father-daughter, and how protective fathers may be because they know firsthand what men are capable of. The cycle of innocence to corruption to fear.”

Going Going Gone Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Daniel made a pass
We started flirting after class
Stealing hats and trading jackets
Locking lips and braces, brackets
After dinner, before dark
We'd meet at the same bench in the park
Sweaty palms, averted eyes
Wasn't sure if he and I were going out
[Chorus]
Going out
Going out, ooh
Going, going out
[Verse 2]
The sunset threw a tantrum
It wasn't ready to go just yet
Mother Earth said, "Time for bed"
It resisted and the sky went red
The color filterеd out
Like pulling teeth out of a cloud
The bloody battle еnded
No, the sun can't break the habit of going down
[Chorus]
Going down
Going down, ooh
Going, going down
[Verse 3]
Daniel in ten years
Grabbing asses, spilling beers
Another ten and he'll have a daughter
She'll grow up and he can't stop her
Back on the bench, making plans
Watching the day end hand in hand
I always had to be home by eight
My dad would kill me if I was late
I'll be going now
[Chorus]
Going now
Going now, ooh
Going, going now
Going, gone
Going, gone
Going, gone, ooh
Going, going, gone
[Outro]
Cool, yeah, that was the one, I think
Yup, that was great, that's what we were looking for
Thanks, guys
Cool, wow, I am so happy
Thank you everyone for doing this
I owe y'all whatever you ask of me for the rest of my life

What did Lucy Dacus say about "Going Going Gone"?
I stayed up until like 1:00 am writing this cute little song on the little travel guitar that I bring on tour. I thought for sure I’d never put it on a record because it’s so campfire-ish. I never thought that it would fit tonally on anything, but I like the meaning of it. It’s about the cycle of bo...
