If I Was Gone

The eight track from the album 'Deny the Fall' by Troublesome Bard.
Lyrics: Brandon Matthews
Music: Suno AI
Laying in bed, feeling restless,
can’t sleep.
My mind an endless battle,
I’m about to admit defeat.
Lots of problems, few solutions,
barely keeping up the pace.
And now my mind starts to race.
What if tomorrow never comes?
What if the sun refuses to rise?
Will they know how deep my love runs,
Will they see the world through my eyes?
If I was gone by the break of dawn,
Would they carry on, would they stay strong?
Would they remember the words I said,
The dreams we shared, the life we led?
If I was gone, oh if I was gone.
The thoughts leave me restless,
feeling turned around,
Feels like I’m haunting the house,
trying not to make a sound.
I see my kids dreaming,
and my heart starts to sink,
My mind wonders back
and I start to think.
What if tomorrow never comes?
What if fate takes me away?
Will they remember where they come from,
Will they find the strength to face each day?
If I was gone by the break of dawn,
Would they carry on, would they stay strong?
Would they remember the words I said,
The dreams we shared, the life we led?
If I was gone, oh if I was gone.
The house is calm and quiet,
wondering what else I can do,
To keep my family safe,
to make sure their ok,
when the time comes
and I fade away.
If I was gone by the break of dawn,
Would they carry on, would they stay strong?
Would they remember the words I said,
The dreams we shared, the life we led?
If I was gone, oh if I was gone.
