Gone

Well she's running from the life she knows
 Running like a train jumps off the tracks, off the tracks
 And it doesn't matter where she goes
 As long as she ain't slipping through the cracks, no more
 And she'll press that bottle to her lips
 But it's not strong enough to numb the pain, oh no
 And she'll take a breath between each sip
 The lightening hits and tears they fall like rain, oh oh
 She says "I'm gone
 Gone like goodbye, gone like last night
 Gone
 Gone like this train, gone like the years
 I've wasted"
 Now she's staring out the window
 Watching dreams of what could be pass her by, pass her by
 It seems she's close enough to touch it
 But why can't she grab ahold of it, why oh why, why why
 The wheels are turning way too fast
 She blows right past the stop she's meant to make
 And the boilers boiling over now
 And she can't get her hands upon the break, on the break
 She says "I'm gone
 Gone like goodbye, gone like last night
 Gone
 Gone like this train, gone like the years
 I've wasted"
 Mmm, mmm
 She says "I can see the light at the end of the tunnel"
 She says "I have finally reached the bottom of the bottle"
 And "I'm gone"
