gone - brandi carlile

Life is too short to waste all your time
Running too quickly to the finish line
Time is a track it's ready and set
And the longer you live the closer you get to being
Gone, gone like the evening
Sun, sun when it sets
Gone, gone like the darkness
At dawn, and then they forget
There's no guarantees or promise of wealth
And you're only allowed so much time on the shelf
Time isn't money it's only a lie
Because everything lost can be found but your time
When you're
Gone, gone like the evening
Sun, sun when it sets
Gone, gone like the darkness
At dawn, and then they forget
But live in doubt live in fear
And you might live forever
Or live it up and watch your back
And you might live for better
Gone, gone like the evening
Sun, sun when it sets
Gone, gone like the darkness
At dawn, and then they forget
