Gone (Acoustic) Lyrics by Devon Braxton

Why You So Quiet

2017

You never see the change until it’s done, but it’s too late
There’s nothing you can do to bring back the ones you knew
You start to feel alone in the place you thought was home
Remember who you are and think that life will never take you far

What happened to your friends who said they’ll be there ’til the end?
They left you for their addictions and treated you an infliction
You go off on your own; discover things about yourself unknown
Reminisce on the past; the days you thought would always last

I sit and watch as it shatters before my eyes
Watch them swimming circles as I start drowning in all these lies
Rough terrain, feel the pain, drench you with the rain
From the storm inside your brain ’til it makes you go insane

We used to kick it playing games up at 2 AM
Talking ‘bout how we not gonna be like one of them
No you doing and selling drugs while “getting lit”
Turned you from a man to an animal called a hypocrite

I don’t go out or party, I drink and smoke enough
I don’t mess with you anymore, guess you outta luck
Stop asking me what I’m doing when you don’t see me out
I’m doing me and don’t you dare ask me what that’s about

This prob’ly the first time that you hearing my originals
Clasp your hands and pray ‘cause this truly is such a miracle
It’s been a while since anybody’s seen me on a stage
It’s been a while since anybody’s seen me out my cage

Now I’m making moves and I ain’t looking back
Now it feels like I’m finally on the right track
No more reminiscing or missing the past I’m moving on
That life wasn’t meant for me; I left it all behind I’m gone
