GONE is about a failed relationship and the emotions that come with it, according to coldrain’s vocalist Masato Hayakawa in an interview with Alternative Press:
‘Gone’ is about giving someone you love everything you have and holding onto them until it just falls apart. The feeling you get when you...
[Intro]
The small simple lies poison everything
One by one, killing all of the memories
Now it's time to put this heart out of its misery
'Cause I've been dying, dying for too long
[Verse 1]
The small simple lies poison everything
One by one, killing all of the memories
You can take what you want and leave when you please
But just remember I'm not waiting for you
No, I won't wait for you
(The ship has sailed and I'm over you)
[Chorus]
I swear I gave you anything and everything
Every little piece of me
But all you did was look away
And when I said, "I've had enough, I'm moving on"
You said your love was never lost
I guess you didn't realize
Until all of it was gone
Until all of it was gone
[Verse 2]
The pain and the fights never seemed to end
Every night wondering if we're even friends
Now it's time to put this love out of its misery
'Cause it's been dying, dying for too long
Dying for too long
(If you're in pain, that's how you belong)
[Chorus]
I swear I gave you anything and everything
Every little piece of me
But all you did was look away
And when I said, "I've had enough, I'm moving on"
You said your love was never lost
I guess you didn't realize
Until all of it was gone
All of it was gone
[Bridge]
All the years and the tears that I wasted on you
The regrets I will take to the grave
But I won't be missing you
Missing you, oh, no
[Chorus]
I swear I gave you anything and everything
Every little piece of me
But all you did was look away
And when I said, "I've had enough, I'm moving on"
You said your love was never lost
I guess you didn't realize
Until all of it was gone
[Outro]
Dying for too long
(Until all of it was gone)
You said your love was never lost
I guess you didn't realize
Until all of it was gone
