#day27 Over! Dead! Gone!

Over, dead, gone. I hope you carry on. I know I'm wrong for all I've done. I hope you find someone.

Over, (Over)
Dead, (Dead)
Gone! (Gone-on-oh!)
I wish you'd sing this song (this song) but,
Don't fret; I'll carry on (on and on)
No matter how long, long, long! (You've been gone)
Over, (Over)
Dead, (Dead)
Gone! (Gone-on-oh!)
I know it's wrong (it's so wrong) but,
You said, "I can't lead (I'll leave) you on," (your own);
I know you're strong (stay calm) through all (with God) the storm-
But what if God is wrong? (Over! Dead! Gone!)

Stuck inside contemplating:
(My own head) If I stepped into your world-
(I'm terrified!) would you do me justice?
(When I can't escape) I can't stand seeing you hurt, but
(I suffocate!) It seems I make things worse, and It's 
(Inducing paranoia) like ice inside my veins, babe, and
(I know you hate) when I call you names, I mean it
(Singing to me) makes me feel safe and peaceful!
(Everyday-) I try to emulate these things.
(Won't you stay?) Instead I remain complacent. 
(Speak to me!) You know I'm afraid if
(Can't you hear me?) all these words I'm saying
(I'm sorry, babe) don't mean a thing
(All hope is gone!) and nothing's gonna save me
(I've been so wrong) but at least I'm better than I was,
I know He ain't wrong, but Christ, 
I'm sorry, love, for when you find me-

Over, (Over)
Dead, (Dead)
Gone! (Gone-on-oh!)
I wish you'd sing this song (this song) but,
Don't fret; I'll carry on (on and on)
No matter how long, long, long! (You've been gone)
Over, (Over)
Dead, (Dead)
Gone! (Gone-on-oh!)
I know it's wrong (it's so wrong) but,
You said, "I can't leave (it seems) you alone," (your own);
I know I'm wrong (Oh God) Its all my fault (I'm not) the one-
I believe (For you) its best you move on (Over! Dead! Gone!)

It's so damn frustrating,
(I'm so dead) how many things I regret, and
(It don't mean shit) no matter how hard I try to
(Make things right!) change my ways, I'll still forget
(How many times?) I hurt you, I'll still shift the blame to
(Run away from me) you, babe, It's getting hard to concentrate on
(It's not okay-) giving up these vices, or anything at all!
(Give up on me) I'm feeling fucking hopeless, you're
(I'll be alright) always right about me, How can you take much more?
(It can't be love) don't tell me that you need me, you
(How could you?) know that I'm always leaving, I'll 
(Wish you better days) never tell the truth, hindsight I'm always lying
(You're better off!) but I can't lie in that I've gone astray, so
(Without me, baby) i'll pray for you to find your way,
Hoping you never wish this wasn't-

Over, (Over)
Dead, (Dead)
Gone! (Gone-on-oh!)
I know you'll carry on (and on) but,
Don't fret; I'll stay in your heart, love (my love)
No matter how long, long, long! (I've been gone)
Over, (Over)
Dead, (Dead)
Gone! (Gone-on-oh!)
I know it's wrong (it's so wrong) but,
Its never what we want (we want), its hard (so hard);
I know I'm wrong (I'm sorry, God) Its all my fault (I only want) the ones I love-
To believe (For you) its best (to learn) from You (and my mistakes)  (Over! Dead! Gone!)
Show them the way home.
