Gone Beyond
[Verse 1]
I'm listening for your silence,
But God, there's so much noise.
And now I feel I've found you.
You're partially destroyed.
I echo in your absence;
Voiceless as a swan.
I want you to hear what I hear:
The sound that I found to replace you while you were gone.
[Chorus 1]
Gone beyond, gone beyond, gone beyond, gone beyond. [x2]
[Verse 2]
With folded legs, you'll hold me
And smile and call me "mine".
You'll worry nothing's happening;
You're happening all the time.
So shaken by these changes,
But trying to waltz alone.
I want you to hear what I hear:
A temple ticking away - beaten, but gone.
[Chorus 2]
Gone beyond, gone beyond, gone beyond, gone beyond. [x4]
Gone beyond, gone beyond...
[Bridge]
Ooo...
Gone beyond [x7]
[Outro]
Gone beyond.
