Gone
Ephemeral Echoes: Nick Wiesner's Melancholic Journey
Lyrics
Gone is my happiness
Gone is the source of my joy and contentment
Gone is my pride
Gone is my sense of dignity and self-worth
Gone is my conviction
Gone is my strong belief or commitment
Gone is my mind
Gone is my sanity or rational thinking
Gone is the sun now
Gone is the daylight, possibly symbolizing hope or positivity
Gone are the stars
Gone are the celestial bodies, suggesting a loss of guidance or inspiration
Gone is everyone now
Gone are all the people, leaving a sense of emptiness
Here are the scars
Now, all that remains are emotional wounds or marks
Oh, you left me with the letters you wrote to me in disguise
The person departed, leaving behind disguised letters, possibly with hidden meanings or intentions
Now I won't be able to read them in the dark of the night
The inability to read the letters in the dark signifies a lack of understanding or clarity
Gone is your hair now
Gone is a physical aspect of the person - their hair
Gone are your eyes
Gone are the expressive and communicative eyes of the person
Gone is my vision
Loss of personal perspective or insight
Gone is my time
Gone is the time that once belonged to the person
Left in the dark with a jar and a firefly
Left in darkness with minimal resources, possibly symbolizing a challenging situation
Oh, you left me with the letters you wrote to me in disguise
Repetition emphasizes the impact of the disguised letters and the inability to comprehend them at night
But now I won't be able to read them in the dark of the night
-Oh, you left me with the letters you wrote to me in disguise
-But now I won't be able to read them in the dark of the night
-Oh, you left me with the letters you wrote to me in disguise
-And now I won't be able to read them in the dark of the night
-Oh, you left me with the letters you wrote to me in disguise
-But now I won't be able to read them in the dark of the night
-Oh, now I won't be able to read them in the dark of the night
Emphasizes the continued difficulty in understanding the letters in the darkness
Oh, the firefly has left me with nothing but the night
The firefly, a symbol of illumination, is now gone, leaving only darkness
Gone is my everything
Complete loss of everything significant and meaningful
Gone
Reiteration of the loss, emphasizing the emptiness
Hmm
Expressions of contemplation or reflection, possibly with a sense of resignation or acceptance
Hmm
