I'm Gone Lyrics

I'm gone, I'm gone
I'm gone, so long
I've cleaned my room
I've gathered up my things
I've freed the dog and
I've taken off my rings
I'll send a note
From the land of tire swings
Oh I'll be happy there
I'm gone, I'm gone
I'm gone, so long
You keep the maps
I won't be needing them
When I arrive
I'm forgetting where I've been
I'm going to
Where the burning highway ends
And there I'll make my home
I'm gone, I'm gone
I'm gone, so long
I've got to fly
To buy a head start on the hurt
The lemon drops
In the pocket of my shirt
Will lead me to where the streets
Are paved with dirt
I've had enough of gold
I'm gone, I'm gone
I'm gone, so long

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
