I'm Gone
Journey into the Void: The Emotive Tale of 'I'm Gone' by The Krugers
Lyrics
I'm gonna take a ride
I plan to embark on a journey.
On the last line of the day
Referring to the final moments of the day.
I'm gonna drift out so far away
I intend to move far away in a drifting manner.
I've got an empty feeling
Experiencing a sense of emptiness.
That'll last me for a while
This feeling will endure for some time.
Stretch out a face into a smile
Transforming a blank expression into a smile.
A smile
Reiterating the act of smiling.
Cheap booze and vacant eyes
Reference to inexpensive alcohol and expressionless eyes.
Stare right back in my face
The vacant eyes staring back at the speaker.
Eating out a bleeding
Eating away at a wounded or broken heart.
Heart dismayed
Expressing distress and disappointment in love.
This is a broken story
Describing the narrative as fractured or damaged.
A laugh at the end of the day
Finding humor or irony at the conclusion of the day.
Is that why you left
Questioning if the departure of someone is the cause of the current state.
Me here this way?
Reflecting on the speaker's present condition.
Away?
Repeating the idea of being away or distant.
I'm gone today
Confirming the speaker's absence on this day.
Mind gone astray
The mind is wandering or lost in thought.
No more to say
No further words to convey.
But "So long"
A farewell message, saying goodbye.
Cry out for what you had
Calling out for something that is now lost or gone.
Cry out I know you're mad
Acknowledging the listener's anger or frustration.
There is nothing left to say
No more words can change the situation.
Live to die another day with you
Choosing to endure life, facing death, alongside another person.
With you!
Emphasizing the connection with someone.
I'm gone today
Reiterating the speaker's absence on this day.
Mind gone astray
The mind continues to be lost or distracted.
No more to say
No additional words to express.
But "So long!"
A final farewell, saying goodbye once more.
