Allday – When I'm Gone lyrics

[Chorus]
I can rest my sleepy eyes
And know it's all gonna be alright
When I'm gone, when I'm gone

[Verse 1]
Up February night, born in this flashing light
Another life begun thanks to Barry White
And I'm very white, yeah, my skin is crystal
Little soldier to mould into an individual
Now I'm in the middle, the world revolves around me
It's bound to be about me 'til I'm old, then I'm out-y
'Til I'm gone, 'til I'm gone
The world puts it hands on you and it chews you up
Spits you out, you're clean, now you choose your path
We can never do enough
So we try to find some beauty in love, the stupid stuff
We are fatally flawed, we're only human
So in the night hope I leave only ruins
When I'm gone, when I'm gone
When I'm dying, put an end to this confusion

[Chorus]
When I'm gone, I can R.I.P. in the clouds
And ask God what it's all about
When I'm gone, when I'm gone
When I'm gone, I can rest my sleepy eyes
And everything's gonna be alright
When I'm gone, when I'm gone


[Verse 2]
Man, what is this life? Shit, you're all getting it
Me, I'm just choking up, need more Ventalin
Me, I'm on everything medicine when I'm numb blue
They told me much once more and I know it's true
You can never satisfy a stomach that is bottomless
I think I've kind of got a grip on what the problem is
I'm gone, already gone
Yeah, more bitches, that's what I was wishing for
If I had three wishes, I'd wish for four
We work our fingers to the bone and get better shit
Then we can't find a second to spend our shit
And if heaven exists, I'll never get in
All the deadly sins I did and terrible things
I'm gone, I'm so far gone
Remember me, the devilish prince

[Chorus]
When I'm gone, I can R.I.P. in the clouds
And ask God what it's all about
When I'm gone, when I'm gone
When I'm gone, I can rest my sleepy eyes
And everything's gonna be alright
When I'm gone, when I'm gone

[Verse 3]
Maybe I should have done better
Maybe I should have stayed
You can never show me evidence
That this is all fake
And I know you're so handsome
And I'm just fallen snow


[Bridge]
But when I'm gone, but when I'm gone
Just let me go
But when I'm gone, but when I'm gone
Just let me go
But when I'm gone, but when I'm gone
Just let me go
But when I'm gone, but when I'm gone
Just let me go
But when I'm gone, but when I'm gone
Just let me go

[Chorus]
When I'm gone, I can R.I.P. in the clouds
And ask God what it's all about
When I'm gone, when I'm gone
When I'm gone, I can rest my sleepy eyes
And everything's gonna be alright
When I'm gone, when I'm gone

[Outro: Interview sample]
"Chris, you're recognised as one of the best pros ever. What tips do you have for anyone who wants to be a pro skater?"
"Just concentrate on your skateboarding and don't get confused with all the business. You've gotta concentrate on that instead of concentrating on who your sponsor is and what they do for you. That'll come to you when you skate good, and that's all you should concentrate on."
