Gone
Beyond Redemption: A Journey Through Despair in Shelby Lore's 'Gone'
Lyrics
Every time your heart's been torn apart
Reflecting on the emotional pain experienced each time the heart is broken.
I walked you through your darkest of days
The speaker has been a supportive presence during the listener's difficult times.
The drugs don't kill they just numb the pain
Highlighting that drugs don't eliminate pain but merely provide temporary relief.
It'll grow more every day
Emphasizing that pain grows over time, suggesting the lasting impact of emotional wounds.
What the hell were you thinking
Expressing disbelief or disappointment in a questionable decision.
Sticking that needle in your arm
Addressing the risky behavior of injecting drugs, possibly a reference to addiction.
Is it worth this life of solitude
Questioning the worth of a life filled with loneliness, especially when loved ones are lost.
Knowing everyone you love is gone
Conveying the profound impact of losing everyone dear to the listener.
Yea they're gone
Reiterating the theme of irreparable loss, emphasizing the departure of loved ones.
Gone
-They're too far gone
-Yea they're gone
-Gone
-They're too far gone
-By the time you realize where it all went wrong
Suggesting that realization of one's mistakes comes too late, after significant damage is done.
They're too far gone
Reiterating the irreversible nature of the damage or loss.
Lying face down on your bed
Describing a scene of despair, potentially referencing overdose and its consequences.
With your pillow made of pain
-There's nothing you can say or do
-That'll put the demon at bay
-Your eyes roll back they're black as coal
-And skin cold to the touch
-You scream out you can't take no more
-Well I'm afraid you took too much
-And now you're gone
Repeating the idea of being 'too far gone,' emphasizing the permanence of the situation.
You're gone
-You're too far gone
-Yea you're gone
-Gone
-You're too far gone
-And by the time you realize where it all went wrong
-You're too far gone
-You bear no more pain
Depicting the end of pain but also the negative impact on family, possibly due to addiction.
Your family wears your chains
-Your last good high
-Didn't last too long
-Punch the clock quick dial 911
-Your eyes are closed
-Your fading fast
-Heart stopped now your cold as ice
-Last grain of sand slipped through your hour glass
-And you're gone
Reiterating the finality of the situation and the delayed realization of the mistakes made.
Gone
-You're too far gone
-Yea you're gone
-Gone
-You're too far gone
-And by the time you realize where it all went wrong
-You're too far gone
