Anything But Gone

[Verse 1]
There's a hollow shadow of you lying by my side
I reach for your hand, but it's only cold empty night
You used to light up when I'd walk through the door
Now your eyes just drift somewhere I can't reach anymore
[Pre-Chorus]
I see the space between us growing wide
I'm still reaching for your side
Tell me what I have to do
To bring the color back to you
[Chorus]
I'd burn the world down just to feel your hand in mine
I'd shatter the heavens to hold you one more time
I'd beg, I'd bleed, I'd do anything to be your everything 
If it meant you'd look at me the way you used to—
Baby, I'm still yours, but you're already gone
I'd do anything... anything but gone
[Verse 2]
You say the words, but they don't land the same
"I love you" echoes hollow, like a stranger's name
I keep setting the table for two, hoping you'll stay
But you're packing your heart up and walking away
[Pre-Chorus]
Every promise we made is fading fast
But I'm still holding on to the past
Tell me it's not too late to make it right 
For the fire that used to burn so bright
[Chorus]
I'd burn the world down just to feel your hand in mine
I'd shatter the heavens to hold you one more time
I'd beg, I'd bleed, I'd do anything to be your everything 
If it meant you'd look at me the way you used to—
Baby, I'm still yours, but you're already gone
I'd do anything... anything but gone
[Bridge]
Maybe I was blind, maybe I loved too loud
Maybe you just stopped believing in us somehow
I’d trade my yesterday's for one more tomorrow
Where you still wanted to stay
But you’re standing there with nothing left to say
[Final Chorus – build intensity]
I'd burn the world down just to feel your hand—
But you're not reaching back, you're letting go of my hand
I'd beg, I'd bleed, I'd break a thousand times
If it meant you'd feel even half of what I feel inside
I'm still yours... God, I'm still yours
But you're already gone
I'd do anything...
anything but gone
