Lyrics

Since I’ve Been Gone
By Jeffrey C. Capps

Since I’ve been gone, nothing seems quite the same
I’m electrified, undignified, petrified, unsane
Since I’ve been here, daydreams keep me awake
I’m a lot like I could have been when I couldn’t stand to stay

Since I’ve been found, it’s so much harder to see
Smokestacking, dreamjacking, all that’s lacking’s me
Since I’ve been writing you from this dark, empty show
The 89er’s falling down, but they won’t make me go

If I feel OK, will you walk with me today
If I feel alright, will you stay with me tonight
If I feel OK, will you walk with me today
If I feel alright, will you stay with me tonight

My mind runs away, but I’m walking in place
My mind runs away, but I’m walking in place
My mind runs away

Since I’ve been gone, I’m feeling so changed
I’m uninspired, always wired, unsatisfied, to blame
Since I’ve been gone, I am feeling so changed
I’m uninspired, always wired, unsatisfied, I’m to blame

But if I feel OK, will you walk with me today
If I feel alright, will you stay with me tonight
If I feel OK, will you walk with me today
If I feel alright, will you stay with me tonight
If I feel OK, will you walk with me today
If I feel alright, will you stay with me tonight
If I feel OK, will you walk with me today
If I feel alright, can I spend the night
