She's Gone
Lament of Lost Love: She's Gone
Lyrics
Don't tell me, don't
Refusal to hear or receive information
Don't tell me she's gone
Refusal to accept that she has departed
I can't get it out of my head
Unable to forget or remove from the mind
She's rotten, sad and alone
She is in a deteriorated, sorrowful, and solitary state
Mr. unknown, you only deserve
Addressing someone as 'Mr. unknown' and suggesting their deserving of something negative
You deserve the worst
Stating deserving the worst
I curse the day that you took her away
Cursing the day when the addressed person took the woman away
I'm still broken 'cause she's gone
Expressing ongoing emotional pain due to her absence
Still hearing her last breath
Still recalling the sound of her final breath
Even feeling her in my arms
Recalling the sensation of having her in arms
I will remember those good moments, but
Remembering positive moments but juxtaposing them with her current distressed state
She's rotten, sad and alone
Reiteration of her dismal and isolated condition
Mr. unknown, its my fault too
Accepting personal responsibility ('Mr. unknown' also addressing self)
It's my fault for not having wanted her more
Regret for not valuing her enough
I deserve it and she doesn't love me anymore
Feeling deserving of the situation and perceiving her lack of love
I'm still broken 'cause she's gone
Continued emotional distress due to her absence
Don't tell don't tell don't tell me, don't
Repeated refusal to accept the reality of her condition
She's rotten, sad and alone
Reiteration of her deteriorated, sorrowful, and solitary state
