Gone (Owl City Version) Lyrics by Switchfoot, Owl City

The Beautiful Letdown (Our Version) [Deluxe Edition]

2023

[Intro]
(Like Frank Sinatra)
(Life is still worth living)

[Verse 1]
She told him she'd rather fix her makeup
Than try to fix what's going on
But the problem keeps on calling
Even with the cellphone gone
She told him that she believes in living
Bigger than she's living now
But her world keeps spinning backwards
And upside down

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't say so long, and throw yourself wrong
Don't spend today away
'Cause today will soon be

[Chorus]
Gone, like yesterday is gone
Like history is gone
Just trying to prove me wrong
And pretend like you're immortal

[Verse 2]
She said, he said, live like no tomorrow
Every day we borrow
Brings us one step closer to the edge, infinity
Where's your treasure, where's your hope
If you get the world and lose your soul?
She pretends like, she pretends like she's immortal

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't say so long, you're not that far gone
This could be your big chance to makeup
Today will soon be

[Chorus]
Gone, like yesterday is gone
Like history is gone
The world keeps spinning on
You're going, going, gone
Like summer break is gone
Like Saturday is gone
Just try to prove me wrong
You pretend like you're immortal (You're immortal)
You're immortal (You're immortal)

[Bridge]
We are not infinite
We are not permanent
Nothing is immediate
We're so confident
In our accomplishments
Look at our decadence

[Outro]
Gone (gone), like Frank Sinatra (gone)
Like Elvis and his mom (gone)
Like Al Pacino's cash (gone)
Nothing lasts in this life (gone)
My high school dreams are gone (gone)
My childhood sweets are gone (gone)
Life is a day that doesn't last for long (gone)
Life is more than money (gone)
Time was never money (gone)
Time was never cash (gone)
Life is still more than girls (gone)
Life is more than hundred dollar bills (gone)
And roto-tom fills (gone)
Life's more than fame and rock and roll and thrills (gone)
All the riches of the kings end up in wills (gone)
We got information in the information age (gone)
But do we know what life is (gone)
Outside of our convenient Lexus cages (gone)
She said, he said, live like no tomorrow (gone)
Every moment that we borrow (gone)
Brings us closer to the God who's not short of cash (gone)
Hey Bono I'm glad you asked (gone)
Life is still worth living, life is still worth living (gone)
Life is still worth living (life is still worth living)
