Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Time spent, can't afford
Minute 'less, I mean it more
Know who's not around to share another go-around with me
Long ago's
Where'd they go? No one knows
Tell me what to do when the ones you love have gone missing
[Verse 2]
My God, I lost you at the corner
On God, I lost you in a moment
Why now, and not a little later?
Tell me how the world seems to get along without you, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Tell me how to keep my world moving on without you, yeah
Yeah, yeah
How can my world be much better off without you?
[Verse 3]
You were on the inside looking out
Went and took a life, now you can't get back home
Mom stays crying for both of them
Holding onto pictures 'cause she can't hold
Either or you, either of you
[Verse 4]
My God, you took him at the corner
On God, you lost it in the moment
What now? You've caught yourself a case and
Maybe the world would be much better off without you, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Both of these lives would of carried on without you, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Maybe the world would be much better off without you
[Verse 5]
What about the other life?
Would it be a better life?
You say he was hoping for a better life than this
I don't want to wish a life away
What about the other life?
Would it be a better life?
You say he was hoping for a better life than this
I don't want to wish a life away
[Verse 6]
My God, I lost you at the corner
On God, you lost it in the moment
Why now, and not a little later?
Tell me how the world seems to get along with out you, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Tell me how to keep my world moving on without you, yeah
Yeah, yeah
How could my world be much better of without you?
[Verse 7]
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
