Now You're Gone
Silver R.I.S.C Lyrics

When you're gone
The singer is addressing their significant other, stating that things feel different when they are not around.

I've been wandering around the house all night
The singer has been aimlessly moving inside their house, unable to focus on anything specific after their significant other has left.

Wondering what the hell to do
The singer is feeling lost and unsure of how to occupy themselves without their significant other present.

Yeah I'm trying to concentrate but all I can think of is you
Despite their efforts to focus on something else, the singer's thoughts keep returning to their significant other.

Well the phone don't ring 'cause my friends they ain't home
The singer's friends are not available to provide distraction or company, leaving the singer feeling alone and isolated.

I'm tired of being all alone
The singer is tired of being by themselves and wishes for the return of their significant other.

Got the TV on 'cause the radio's playing songs that remind me of you
The singer is attempting to drown out their thoughts by listening to the TV, since the songs on the radio are causing them to think of their significant other even more.

Baby when you're gone, I realize I'm in love
When the singer's significant other is not around, they come to the realization that they are in love with them.

Days go on and on, and the nights just seem so long
Without their significant other present, time seems to drag on and feel endless for the singer.

Even food don't taste that good, drink ain't doing what it should
The singer is unable to take pleasure in basic things like food or drink without their significant other around.

Things just feel so wrong, baby when you're gone
The absence of the singer's significant other leads them to feel that things are just not right in their life.

I've been driving up and down these streets
The singer is spending their time wandering around outside in an attempt to find something to do.

Trying to find somewhere to go
The singer is hoping to find a destination or activity that will help them to distract themselves from thoughts of their significant other.

Ya I'm lookin' for a familiar face but there's no one I know
Despite searching for company, the singer is unable to locate anyone they are familiar with.

This is torture, this is pain, it feels like I'm gonna go insane
The singer is struggling with the intense emotions and negative feelings brought on by the absence of their significant other.

I hope you're coming back real soon 'cause I don't know what to do
The singer is desperately hoping for the return of their significant other because they are at a loss for how to cope with their absence.

Baby when you're gone (when you're gone), I realize I'm in love
The repeated line emphasizes the fact that the singer only seems to understand their feelings for their significant other fully when they are not around.

Days go on and on (on and on), and the nights just seem so long
The monotony of the days and the lengthening of the nights without their significant other only serves to amplify the singer's longing for them.

Even food don't taste that good (good), drink ain't doing what it should
The frustration of being unable to take pleasure in basic things like eating or drinking is again highlighted to emphasize the impact of their significant other's absence.

Things just feel so wrong (so wrong), baby when you're gone (gone, gone)
Again, the singer emphasizes the depth of their negative feelings, specifically associated with the absence of their significant other.

Baby when you're gone
The song ends with the same line it begins with, reiterating the central theme of the singer's longing for and dependence on their significant other.
