Gone Lyrics

Another day away from home another trip
To kill another place I've never been
Another day in hell
Another day in a crowded room...another place
To bleed...another world that your blind to
That I've already seen

[Chorus:]
When I'm gone
Don't fill the space that still belongs to me
When I'm gone...say hello for me
When I'm gone
Think about what all this does to me
When I'm gone...say hello for me

Another piece of me is dead...and I'm
Afraid of the blind...leading the blind until
Was this all for something...that I give for
Nothin...stop with the fake delivery
Stuck in the middle I'm gone

[Chorus:]
When I'm gone
Don't fill the space that still belongs to me
When I'm gone...say hello for me
When I'm gone
Think about what all this does to me
When I'm gone...say hello for me

I think the way the lyrics are written here are misleading, it sounds as thought Lajon sings " Another trip to kill" as in killing the time on the trip... but yeh anyway to me this song is about the pitfalls of constant touring "crowded room" "fake delivery" as in being surrounded by fake ppl trying to steal in on the fame.. and also about fearing that the loved ones they leave behind might not be there when they come back

It's about how touring is so great at the start, but after awhile of playing cramped little venues it really starts to become a living hell.

Does anyone know if whoever wrote this song has kids? I think that the part about replacing and filling the space could be referring to kids growing up without their father really around since he is touring 250-300 days a year.

Didn't his cousin die in the war during the making of this album, I kinda thought it was about not forgetting the ones you love after they're gone.

"Another day away from home another trip To kill another place I've never been Another day in hell"

@ChubbyHuggs No, Lajon's brother was shot dead, but not in war. I don't think the circumstances were revealed.

I think if you listen to the last line he say's " I miss my son" so I would think its about touring all the time and I also think he has a boy at home as well............

@Adogg71 I hear, "I wish my soul." Lajon also did not have a song at the time Seasons was released. Neither did any of the other band members.
