"When You're Gone" lyrics

When you're gone, all I want is to see you again
Even though that'd mess with my head

When you're gone, and I'm all by myself in this bed
I'll confess that I'd rather be dead

And you don't wanna see me like that
If you wrote me now, would I write back?

Could I be myself around you?
Cause you made me feel like my thoughts got hijacked

And I ain't doing it again
I don't want a "How you been? "Don't wanna know how you've been

What I wanna know is, how did I lose myself?
How did I lose my head?

Look at my shoulders, broken and bruised
You don't want me? I don't want you

Never had to be like this
I never wanted you to feel like shit

In a way I wanna thank you
Cause you made me meet my angels

And they helped me fly away
From that place that made me feel strangled

But I'm used to losing you
Do you still care
About me?

Did I lose you?
Could I use you
To pretend we could be?

I haven't seen your face
Or heard your voice in so long

And I know you think I hate you
Girl, you've got me all wrong

When you're gone, all I want is to see you again
Even though that'd mess with my head

When you're gone, and I'm all by myself in this bed
I'll confess that I'd rather be dead

But I'm used to losing you
Do you still care
About me?

Did I lose you?
Could I use you
To pretend we could be?

Don't know what to do when you're gone
