This song is written in tribute to joe`s mother who has passed away. RIP.
Lyrics
GONE
I leave the past far behind
Going nowhere blind to the signs
And when you died I realised
That nothing’s safe in this life
Life changed that day
Life changed the moment that I realised
That I’d never again look in her eyes
Or feel the warmth of her touch
You were taken from me
Aged 10 with the sudden urge to fight
The whole world with destruction in my sights
I was going nowhere fast, I reversed the nightmare
Over all it made me stronger
To face the years ahead
Chorus
The tears I’ll overcome in time now
The loss of our loved ones, so profound
Better man I am today, nothing can hold me back
I live my life in tribute to you
Your memory remains forever more
I’ll live no lie, I’ll purify my soul inside
A feeling of joy as I look inside myself
And see the hate’s gone
Now all that remains is the will to succeed
And the hope that we will meet again
In the next life
Chorus
Hate heals the heart
I’m sorry for hating life
Now, without you
Mother deprived of you, falling slowly
The pain is so real, the pain it won’t heal
Mother the pain is real, mother the pain won’t heal
My heart is bleeding, the pain is so real
Why does it have to be so?
Why does it have to be so real?
Falling away inside, no longer I will feel the warmth of your touch
In my heart now I feel nothing but sorrow
Reality is such a cruel thing, it’s so empty here without you
As I walk deeper down the path of life
Everything I’ve felt and everything I’ve seen was not in vain
As I look at the man I am today
I see my emotions are no longer there
They’re dead and they’re never coming back
