Dead and Gone Lyrics
At the bottom of a swimming pool
I think I found a clue
I know
That I'm getting closer
I'm looking for fingerprints
Some sort of documents
To find the only one who made it all the way from the sun
She's gone away
She's gone away
I need to hear her say
The world doesn't mean as much as you do
I can learn the truth
You see him everyday
You wish that he was me
You try to find a way to bring yourself to it
She's gone away
She's gone away
I need to hear her say
The world doesn't mean as much as you do
No one means as much as you do
Hey[x11]
She's dead and gone away
Hey[x11]
She's dead and gone away
She's gone away
She's gone away
I need to hear her say
The world doesn't mean as much as you do
No one means as much as you do
Hey[x3]
She's dead and gone away
Hey[x3]
She's dead and gone away
At the bottom of a swimming pool
I think I found a clue
I know (I know) I know (I know)
That I'm getting closer
And you see him everyday
You wish that he was me
You try to find a way to bring yourself to it
I think I found a clue
I know
That I'm getting closer
I'm looking for fingerprints
Some sort of documents
To find the only one who made it all the way from the sun
She's gone away
I need to hear her say
The world doesn't mean as much as you do
You see him everyday
You wish that he was me
You try to find a way to bring yourself to it
She's gone away
I need to hear her say
The world doesn't mean as much as you do
No one means as much as you do
She's dead and gone away
Hey[x11]
She's dead and gone away
She's gone away
I need to hear her say
The world doesn't mean as much as you do
No one means as much as you do
She's dead and gone away
Hey[x3]
She's dead and gone away
I think I found a clue
I know (I know) I know (I know)
That I'm getting closer
And you see him everyday
You wish that he was me
You try to find a way to bring yourself to it

from I Am the Avalanche.com: "Dead and Gone," for instance, puts closure on his relationship with the girl he thought he'd spend the rest of his life with. "It starts out with me floating on the bottom of a swimming pool with my eyes open looking around for something," he says. "I'm on this quest to find the girl that hurt me so badly. I'm on a search to find the other her, the one I was so in love with because she's been gone for so long. And finally I figure out that she's dead and gone and that chapter of my life is over and I have to move on and get on with what I'm supposed to be doing, which is this band."
This song is a great opener to an amazing album. I've got high hopes for IATA.
An amazing album, my top 3 of 2005 if not my top album of the whole year. This song is so good, just about realising what you had you can never get back. It's gone, kinda a moving on song
My fav. song from IATA
It's hard to let go of something you aren't ready to let go of.
Oh yeah OneSecondRegrets, I know that all too well.
This is my personal favorite from IATA, in part because I can relate... it hurts so much to have to come to terms with the fact the one you love the most has to be left in the past.
awesome song.. I really love the lines: "The world doesn't mean as much as you do No one means as much as you do " Feeling it all the time.
i love this song. it kicks you in the face.
