[Silence]
[Arrangement: Driving tempo hard-rock with guitar riffs, organ, sub-bass, and a chorus that feels suspended between hope and resignation]
[Intro]
Door still swings
(On its frame)
Keys still hang
(Just the same)
Night comes down
(And asks again)
Will you return
(Or did it end?)
[Verse 1]
There’s a jacket
(On the chair)
A little proof
(You once were there)
Coffee cup
(By the sink)
All the things
(That make me think)
Maybe distance
(Is just a phase)
Maybe time
(Can shift its ways)
Maybe roads
(That split apart)
Still remember
(Where they start)
[Refrain]
But are you coming back
(Again)
Or will you ever lack
(To again begin)
Are you coming home
(Or are you gone, gone, gone)
Out on your own
(Singing our swan song)
[Verse 2]
There’s a silence
(In the hall)
That almost sounds
(Like a distant call)
And every room
(Lost its shape)
Even absence
(Leaves a trace)
[Refrain]
But are you coming back
(Again)
Or will you ever lack
(To again begin)
Are you coming home
(Or are you gone, gone, gone)
Out on your own
(Singing our swan song)
[Bridge]
[Instrumental]
[Percussion and organ interlude]
[Guitar solo]
[Breakdown]
Gone, gone, gone…
(Again)
Gone, gone, gone…
(Begin again)
Can’t come back…
(No going home)
… gone, gone, gone…
(All alone)
[Final Refrain]
But are you coming back
(Again)
Or will you ever lack
(To again begin)
Are you coming home
(Or is gone, gone, gone)
Our only song
(Gone, gone, gone)
[Outro]
Door still swings
(On its frame)
Keys still hangs
(Just the same)
No, you can’t come home
(Gone, gone, gone)
Our only song
(Gone, gone, gone)
Gone
