SWITCHFOOT LYRICS - Gone

"Gone"



She told him she'd rather fix her makeup

Than try to fix what's going on

But the problem keeps on calling

Even with the cellphone gone

She told him that she believes in living

Bigger than she's living now

But her world keeps spinning backwards

And upsidedown

Don't say so long, and throw yourself wrong

Don't spend today away

Cuz today will soon be



Gone, like yesterday is gone,

Like history is

Gone, just trying to prove me wrong

And pretend like you're immortal



She said he said live like no tomorrow

Every day we borrow

Brings us one step closer to the edge (infinity)

Where's your treasure, where's your hope

If you get the world and lose your soul

She pretends like she pretends like she's immortal

Don't say so long

You're not that far gone

This could be your big chance to makeup

Today will soon be



Gone, like yeterday is gone,

Like history is gone,

The world keeps spinning on,

Your going going gone,

Like summer break is gone,

Like saturday is gone

Just try to prove me wrong

You pretend like your immortal your immortal



We are not infinite

We are not permanent

Nothing is immediate

We're so confident

In our accomplishments

Look at our decadence



Gone, like Frank Sinatra

Like Elvis and his mom

Like AL Pacino's cash nothing lasts in this life

My highschool dreams are gone

My childhood sweets are gone

Life is a day that doesn't last for long



Life is more than money

Time was never money

Time was never cash,

Life is still more than girls

Life is more than hundred dollar bills

And roto-tom fills

Life's more than fame and rock and roll and thrills

All the riches of the kings

End up in wills we got information in the information age

But do we know what life is

Outside of our convenient Lexus cages



She said he said live like no tomorrow

Every moment that we borrow

Brings us closer to the God who's not short of cash

Hey Bono i'm glad you asked

Life is still worth living, life is still worth living
