Gone – An Original Song About Leaving For College

by Hadassah Grace

Gone

I don’t usually ever act this way 
But they don’t know that 
Lately I just haven’t felt the same 
But they don’t know that 
They say this is freedom, spread your wings
You can be whoever you want to be
When nobody knows you 
Nobody knows me

I’ve gotten good at starting over 
But I’m tired of moving on 
And counting down the days til 
Everything is gonna change and 
Another part of me is gone

The other night I just fell apart 
And they all know that 
Lately I have had a heavy heart 
And they all know that 
They say it gets better, give it time 
But I’m running out and I feel like I 
Don’t even know me 
I don’t even know me

I’m tired of starting over 
I’m numb from moving on 
Packing up my things and 
seeing what the next place brings and 
Another part of me is gone

Soon I’ll be starting over 
And letting go and moving on 
So I am on my knees 
Praying that before I leave 
This place will feel like home

I’m packing up my things
You’ll always be a part of me 
Every time I leave 
I leave behind a part of me 
And 
Another part of me is gone
