I've been holding on, trying to make this right
But every second shared, turns into a fight
In those moments when I'm alone, I find my peace
Without the weight of you, I can finally breathe
I thought love was meant to feel this way
But now I see, the knots I've made
Is it too late to undo this now? (Undo this now)
Am I allowed to be happy somehow?
When you're gone (Gone!)
I feel a little less lonely
When you're gone (Gone!)
Like I can finally speak
In this solitude, I'll reclaim my youth
But when you're not around
I feel so brand new, I'm not missing you
When you're gone, I feel like me too
I've been bending backward, trying to fit your mold
Lost myself in shadows, stories left untold
In those quiet nights, I find my voice
Without the noise of you, I can make my choice
I thought love was meant to lift us high
But now I see, it was built on lies
Is it too late to change the course now? (Change the course now)
Am I allowed to break free somehow?
When you're gone (Gone!)
I feel a little less lonely
When you're gone (Gone!)
Like I can finally speak
In this solitude, I'll reclaim my youth
When you're gone (Gone!)
I feel so brand new, I'm not missing you
When you're gone, I'm me too
When you're gone, my chest feels less tighter
All I know is why the caged bird sings the blues
When you're gone, every step I take is lighter
Without you, I feel less lonely from it too
When you're gone (Gone!)
I feel a little less lonely
When you're gone (Gone!)
Like I can finally speak
In this solitude, I'll reclaim my youth
But when you're not around
I feel so brand new, I'm not missing you
When you're gone, I feel like me too
When you're gone, my chest feels less tighter
All I know is why the caged bird sings the blues
When you're gone, every step I take is lighter
Without you, I feel less lonely from it too
