[Verse 1]
Well, the changing of the guard is oh, so real
But before I go, I wanna tell you how I feel
I gave you the chance to build a life worth living
But you cut off the love like a vine that can never grow back

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I used to go away
And come back, back another day
But now I don't know how long

[Chorus]
I'm gonna be gone
Yeah, yeah
But I'm gonna be gone
Yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]
Well, I hung on like a dog for life and limb
And the burning house casts shapes upon the scrim
I gave you the chance to build a life worth building
But you smashed all the plants up, and now they can never grow back

[Pre-Chorus]
You had fun stringing me along
But oh, now playing, you were wrong
But now I don't know how long
[Chorus]
I'm gonna be gone
Yeah, yeah
But I'm gonna be gone
Yeah, yeah

[Bridge]
Now woman, I wanna tell you something
I ain't never seen the likes of you before
So I was willing to stand still while you pushed me
But you finally pushed me out the door
So I wanna hear you say it (Say it, yeah)
Yeah, I wanna hear you beg me (Beggin', yeah)

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I used to go away
And come back, back another day
But now I don't know how long

[Chorus]
I'm gonna be gone
Yeah, yeah
But I'm gonna be gone
Yeah, yeah
But I'm gonna be gone
Yeah, yeah
But I'm gonna be gone
Yeah, yeah
