Never Knew You Were Gone - Mipso Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Careful, don’t let the screen door slam
The carnival’s open, but that spring in the middle might bite the hand
The moon’s full, it’s light from the hiding sun
There’s flowers in the carpet but dad’s staring bullets
At some cowboys and indians

[Chorus]
Gone in a silvery fire
Gone right over to the other side for a little while
Barking at the TV screen
Gawking at the beauty queens
They never knew you were gone

[Verse 2]
You’re faithful to the call of the borderlinе
You noticed a hog nosed snake and that takеs a willing vision to bring to life
The skyfull is burning with angel eyes
The stars up in the heavens shine like the horns of a celestial front line

[Chorus]
Gone in a silvery fire
Gone right over to the other side for a little while
A different world through an open door
Cicada on a sycamore
They never knew you were gone
They never knew you were gone

[Verse 3]
January sunrise over the pines
A tall one’s broken under snow that fell for days of hours
And it’s peaceful, but there’s no one to listen now
There’s silence in the city
The keys to the kingdom have been buried deep underground

[Chorus]
Gone in a silvery fire
Gone right over to the other side for a little while
Barking at the TV screen
Gawking at the beauty queens
They never knew you were gone
They never knew you were gone
