[Verse 1]
I could say that I'll always be here for you
But that would be a lie and quite a pointless thing to do
I could say that I'll always have feelings for you
But I've got a life ahead of me and I'm only 22

[Chorus]
Since you've gone, I've lost that chip on my shoulder
Since you've gone, I feel like I've gotten older
Now you're gone, it's as if the whole wide world is my stage
Now you're gone, it's like I've been let out of my cage

[Verse 2]
You always made it clear that you hated my friends
You made me feel so guilty when I was running 'round with them
And everything was always about being cool
And now I've come to realize there's nothing cool about you at all

[Chorus]
Since you've gone, I've lost that chip on my shoulder
Since you've gone, I feel like I've gotten older
Now you're gone, it's as if the whole wide world is my stage
Now you're gone, it's like I've been let out of my cage

[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
Since you've gone, I've lost that chip on my shoulder
Since you've gone, I feel like I've gotten older
Now you're gone, it's as if the whole wide world is my stage
Now you're gone, it's like I've been let out of my cage
