[Intro]

(When I'm gone!!)


[Verse 1]

Hands up and don't you make a sound

Shotgun is pointed at me now

It just might blow me away


[Verse 2]

So here's all I have, it isn't much but please

All I ask is let me walk away

Just then I thought I heard the sound


[Chorus]

I never had this feeling so cold

I stood there freezing and waiting

I never had this feeling so cold

It seems too easy, it seems too easy to be gone


[Verse 3]

Hands out before I kiss the ground

Shotgun still pointed at me now

Ready to blow me away


[Verse 4]

And I don't think I will make it home tonight

Don't think I will make it out alive

That's when I then I thought I heard the sound


[Chorus]

I never had this feeling so cold

I stood there freezing and waiting

I never had this feeling so cold

It seemed too easy, it seemed too easy to be gone


[Verse 5]

Each night I dream it all again

Steel barrel up against my head

Each night I never get away

Shots fired, shots fired, shots!


[Bridge]

If the light should take me

Then tonight I'll be free


[Chorus]

I never had this feeling so cold

I stood there freezing and waiting

I never had this feeling so cold

It seemed too easy, it seemed too easy to be gone


[Outro]

I'm blessed by a nightmare nightly

And when I'm dying it reminds me

I grab the air now and hold it tightly

Remember everything I love, then I'm gone
