In the morning when I'm far from home
Nothing ever happens when you're gone

Today I lost my only friend
I held on till the very end
I cried myself into the bed
Regretting all the things I said
But the silence has begun
I'll miss you when you're gone

Tie me up and take me for a ride
Break me open, take a look inside
I'm reading other people's books
And shooting people dirty looks

I'm listening to what you have to say
It's like I'm miles away
But I don't want to run
I'll miss you when you're gone

Today I lost my only friend
I held on till the very end
I cried myself into the bed
I cried myself into the bed
Regretting all the things I said
But the silence has begun
I'll miss you when you're gone
