You've been gone, gone, gone and I've waited here so long,
You've been gone, gone, gone, gone, gone.
You've been gone, gone, gone while my mind races on,
You've been gone, gone, gone, gone, gone.

I've been sitting right here, I've been waiting for you, my dear,
I've been sitting right here, yes I'm sittin' right here.
I've been sitting right here and I never shed no tears,
I've been sitting right here, on my rear in my easy chair.

I have faith in you, yes it's true, yeah, yes it's true,
I have faith in you, and my heart is calling you.
I have faith in you, and good Lord, I ain't no fool,
I have faith in you, yes you know, you know it's true.

I never once looked around for another in this town,
I never once looked around in this town.
If you come back to me, oh my heart will fill with glee,
Hey oh, you better come back to me.

If you come back to me, oh I'll kiss ya, oh you'll see,
You better run right here to me.
You've been gone, gone, gone and Lord, I'm sure it won't be long,
'till you're coming back home to me.

You've been gone, gone, gone, but my heart is beating strong,
and you say you're coming back to me.
You've been gone, gone, gone and now my patience is gone,
and well, I see a new lover just for me.

Now you're gone no more, but I've moved in with the one next door,
Yeah, I'm in love with you no more.
For you, my love's gone cold, them tender feelings have grown old,
It's been gone, it's done gone cold.

WAY to much repetition.

Reminds me of a song by Bush.

They say mouth like 40 F*CKING times!

Can't stand it.

WAY to much repetition.

Ummm it's a F*CKING blues song.

That's a shitty excuse..

that's like me writing a shitty metered song about gore and guts and going...."umm duhh it's F*CKING Death Metal song"...


I meh'd at the vocals but I bet you could get some bitches to get naked with that voice.

Look, you can get defensive if you want, but I listen to some blues, not all, but a little.

and NONE of it has that much repetition in it.

GL with it though.

Kurt Cobain was an excellent songwriter and his lyrics often held much depth, you just aren't going to find it if you don't recognize it for what it is. Fact of the matter is a lot of the songs had to be listened to in ways akin to Christ's parables. Hidden shit.

Bahaha Strange and Tazzler are pretty accurate here. I am no musical judge or anyone who can actually bash your music. Your music is your own and I can just give my opinion. With that said......I think you might want to try and spice it up, the song is just bleak and not like a good bleak like some of the sad songs nickel creek does. Its like a lame bleak that every artist has done or tried to do a million times over. The cool thing about music is when people come up with new things and try something different, if you were to add something that made the song different it may have some potential. Like this sounds like a narration of every 13 year old who had a crush on a girl that didn't come through. Hopefully something can be added to maybe mature the song so its not as you said, a 5 minute write.

You know what your right, go ahead and enjoy mediocrity. Isn't that what that list of corporate leaders would like you to do?
