This emotional track delves into the depths of love, loss, and dependency. The protagonist is struggling with the absence of a loved one, using substances as a coping mechanism to numb the pain and recreate the illusion of their presence. The repeated line "I'm done carrying the weight of the world" signifies his overwhelming sense of burden and longing for escape. The song also highlights the temporary relief offered by these substances, symbolized by phrases like "when I’m tripping I see your face". However, this relief is short-lived - "when the high stops then I know that you’re gone". This poignant portrayal serves as a reminder of how individuals may resort to unhealthy ways to deal with loss or loneliness, underlining the importance of addressing emotional pain in healthier ways.
Gone
Lyrics
I’m sitting here cold as ice
Swallow my friend’s advice
Praying it’ll bring you back to me
Designed through radio static
I start hearing your voice reply
Almost like you’re right here with me
So don’t tell me when it’s over
I don’t wanna know
I’m done carrying the weight of the world
So heavy on my shoulders
I just wanna feel this love
Even if it’s only when I’m tripping I see your face
I ain’t doing no one a favour while I’m sober
For the moment I can only hope this lasts
Coz when the high stops then I know that you’re gone
So stay and hold me like a paper weight
Kiss me like it’s all the same
Just lovers like we were supposed to be
Oh as these shapes and colours all start to fade
I can feel you slipping away
Just promise that you’ll wait right here for me
Until I find another dose
Won’t make it on my own
I’m done carrying the weight of the world
So heavy on my shoulders
I just wanna feel this love
Even if it’s only when I’m tripping I see your face
I ain’t doing no one a favour while I’m sober
For the moment I can only hope this lasts
Coz when the high stops then I know that you’re gone
When the high stops then I know that you’re gone
So don’t tell me when it’s over
I don’t wanna know
I’m done carrying the weight of the world
So heavy on my shoulders
I just wanna feel this love
Even if it’s only when I’m tripping I see your face
I ain’t doing no one a favour while I’m sober
For the moment I can only hope this lasts
Coz when the high stops then I know that you’re gone
