We're Gone
Embracing Lost Identities: We're Gone
Lyrics
So you thought you'd figured it all out
Reflecting on someone who believed they understood everything.
You walk, your head held high
Confidently moving forward with pride.
You never seem to look around at all
Not paying attention to surroundings.
You're gone
Emphasizing the departure or absence of someone.
Another one follows the line
Others follow the same path.
Your beautiful creases better iron them right
Encouraging to address flaws or imperfections.
We're gone
Reiteration of being gone, possibly emphasizing the irreversible nature.
We're gone
Continuation of emphasizing departure or absence.
We're all a part of what we're not
Highlighting that individuals are defined by what they are not.
We're all a part of what we're not
Repetition for emphasis on what individuals are not.
We are, we are the lost ones
Repeated declaration of being the "lost ones," possibly expressing a sense of disorientation or lack of purpose.
We are, we are the lost ones
-We are, we are the lost ones
-We are, we are the lost ones
-Then something calls out your name
A moment of recognition or awakening as something calls out.
You stop and you question
Pausing to question the dreams that once defined the person.
The dreams you used to own you move on
Moving on from the dreams or aspirations.
You're gone
Reiteration of the departure or absence.
They wrote a tale for our lives
A narrative created for lives, possibly symbolizing societal expectations.
A bitter-sweet union
Describing a union that has both positive and negative aspects.
And I am the bride
Personalizing the narrative by being the bride, implying a significant role.
No, no, no, oh, oh
An expression of disagreement or rejection.
We're all a part of what we're not
Repetition of being the "lost ones," reinforcing a theme of disconnection.
We're all a part of what we're not
-We are, we are the lost ones
-We are, we are the lost ones
-We are, we are the lost ones
-We are, we are the lost ones
-Always waiting for just the right moment
Describing a perpetual state of waiting, stagnation, searching, and feeling lost.
Always standing still until a movement
-Always searching for more than just a feeling
-Always lost in a world without meaning
-Yeah...
An exclamation, possibly expressing frustration or realization.
We are, we are the lost ones
Repetition of being the "lost ones," emphasizing the central theme of the song.
We are, we are the lost ones
-We're all a part of what we're not
-We're all a part of what we're not
-You're Gone
Reiteration of someone being gone, emphasizing finality.
Gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
Repetition of "Gone," possibly representing a fading or disappearance.
Gone, gone, gone
-Forgot yourself
Directing attention to forgetting oneself and love as a factor in being gone.
Forgot your love

-Gone
Final repetition of "Gone," emphasizing the theme and concluding the song.
