You're Not There Songtext

von Nils Lofgren

Was a time you worshiped all of me
You loved whatever I wanted to be
Washed and molded, suffered and fed
Hopes and dreams into my head
You were life and death to me
One of those random 44 strays
Shattered my life, took off half your face
Screaming, bloody murder, as they took you away
Lipstick, cigarette burning in a dirty ashtray
That's all they left of you
Ah, you're not there, anymore
My God got killed, in the war
Oh, she's not there, anymore
You're not there
No more, no more, no more
Now your smoke, and I'm all scared
It's hard remembering that we cared
Avenging nothing but a black, black hole
But it'll be quick, with the gun I stole
Mama I'm so lost and confused
Ah, you're not there, anymore
My God got killed, in the war
Oh, she's not there, anymore
Ah, you're not there, anymore
My God got killed, in the war
Oh, she's not there, anymore
You're not there
You're not there
You're not there
