Eels - Gone Man lyrics
[Eels - Gone Man lyrics]
That was a good thing that's gone man, gone
I pass the hours just to get me by
Talk to the dog so I know that I'm alive
I never thought that I should quit
All the stupid crazy shit that I do
In the name of keepin' good things away
Some things you can fuck right up
Other things well, you better not screw up
My problem was that I could not see
What was important right in front of me
I never thought that I should quit
All the stupid crazy shit that I do
In the name of keepin' good things away
How much longer, man for this Earth?
It's here today but soon gone man, gone
The epitaph scratched upon my stone:
"Here lies a man who just wanted to be alone"
She used to love me but it's over now
That was a good thing that's gone man, gone
I take small comfort in a dying world
I'm not the only one who's feeling this pain
