Now She’s Gone

Now She’s Gone
(Flannery)

Well her eyes didn’t look like eyes no more
didn’t trust the sky didn’t trust the floor
fear one day it wouldn’t let her by
at the end she didn’t recognize me
now she’s gone
gone gone gone
now she’s gone
now she’s gone

Was never the one to lead the way
was never the one out on display
was never the one who made the noise
she was never the one who scared the boys
now she’s gone
gone gone gone
now she’s gone
now she’s gone

Now she’s gone not much change
RIPs on the wall
an empty chair and flowers
grief counselors in the hall

Well her Mom and Dad couldn’t understand
but he room was like a no-man’s land
in the mirror she looked for someone else
on walls she read the lies about herself
now she’s gone
gone gone gone
now she’s gone
now she’s gone

Trying to make out how I feel but something’s in the way
maybe tomorrow I can understand what I can’t get today

Well the girls they wouldn’t leave her alone
took her down all on their own
what a way to pass the time
when you’re a kind in your prime
now she’s gone
gone gone gone
now she’s gone
now she’s gone
now she’s gone
gone gone gone
now she’s gone
now she’s gone
