Gone, after she's gone in my way I'll keep on going strong Have to be strong In my way just keep on going I'll keep one wide open Keep one locked away And when the whole thing's over No one left to blame People are throwing their lives away Saving their dreams for another day Caught in a slow erosion in intimate decay Until my will is broken no one left to blame Don't let the world Don't let the world Fall on your head Don't let the world Fall on your head And when the flood gates open Ashes swept away Until my will is broken I'll be first to say Gone, after she's gone in my way I'll keep on going strong Have to be strong In my way just keep on Don't let the world Don't let the world Fall on your head Don't let the world Fall on your head Follow me down Follow me down Follow me down Follow me down
