Already Gone
Wild Rivers Lyrics

I walked out my house tonight just to hear the quiet
I left my house tonight to find some peace and quiet

Listen to the dark before I lie
I wanted to take a moment of silence before I go to bed

Looking to the city lights burning from afar
I saw the distant city lights glowing in the sky

Glowing at the bottom of the sky
The city lights were shining at the horizon

I think nothing beautiful comes without a fight
I believe that everything worthwhile requires effort and struggle

Of course, there's no exception in us
Our relationship was no exception to this rule

I've come to love revolving doors and things that tend to shine
I've developed an admiration for things that spin and glitter

But you never really cared for that much
However, you never shared that interest or passion

Oh, ain't it just a shame
Isn't it a pity?

Ending 'bout the same way that we started out
Our relationship began and ended in similar ways

Oh, comin' back around with just more jewelry
We tried to revive our love with superficial gifts and trinkets

I'm afraid that we've departed now
I'm worried that we've gone our separate ways for good

You won't catch me, trains are moving too fast
You can't keep up with me, I'm moving on too quickly

What's this railcar to some bits of broken glass
I'm not worth as much as you think, just a worthless piece of debris

I had a box of pictures that I hid in tall grass
I saved some memories that I wanted to keep hidden and safe

You won't find me cause I'm already gone
You won't be able to reach me because I've already moved on

Well I used to have love
I used to feel love and affection

But I was stubborn and drunk
But I was too headstrong and foolish to appreciate it

So I squandered it
So I wasted it away and lost it

I got rid of your taste with some things in a place
I tried to forget about you by getting rid of things that reminded me of you

Because I wanted it
Because I thought it was the best thing for me
