Been Gone
• Written by Asteri
Late night drives with the tears in my eyes
I was holding your love, thought we’d never divide
You was saying forever, then you switched up the vibe
Now I’m talking to ghosts just to make it survive
I put trust in your words, let my guard go aside
All the promises sweet, but the truth always hide
I was deep in my feelings, you was along for the ride
Now I’m lost in my head, yeah I’m dead inside
I been fighting my demons, they don’t ever get tired
Mix the hurt with the love, whole heart on fire
Told myself I’m okay, yeah I’m a damn good liar
Every smile that I show just another disguise
I was there when you broke, never asked you to try
Now I’m breaking alone, screaming out to the sky
If you see me do better, don’t ask me why
I been gone, tryna save my life
In my head all alone with the voices again
They be telling me trust, then they telling me end
I was giving you love, you was counting my sins
Now I’m stuck in a loop where the sorrow begin
I been pouring my soul in a cup with no end
Every sip taste the same, yeah it poison within
I was hoping you’d stay, you was ready to bend
Now I’m walking this road with no hand to extend
They see money and fame, think the hurt finally end
But the scars still bleed, yeah they deep in my skin
I been running from peace, I don’t know how to win
When the war in my head feel heavier than sin
If I overdose thoughts, don’t act shocked in the end
I was crying for help, you was missing the lens
If I make it out alive, I won’t be the same man
I been gone, hope you understand
I been gone, yeah I faded from the light
Too many nights tryna wrestle with my mind
You been calling but I’m drifting outta sight
I been gone, tryna make it out alive
I been gone, yeah the pain don’t feel right
Heart too heavy, got me numb every time
If you loved me, why you leave me in the night
I been gone, tryna save my life
