It was a cloudy night,
or so it looked to me,
I felt so lost,
I couldn't say why.
I needed strength to change my mind
but those ghosts stick to me like glue,
hatin' life,
believing I was no good
It was a darkness all my own
a song played on the radio,
but it went straight to my heart
I carried it with me until the darkness was gone.
Gone (4x)

It was a cloudy night,
or so it looked to me,
I felt so lost,
I couldn't say why
I built this cloud to live in,
It was a bunch of lies in my mind.
The world wants me to believe it
so I had to change my mind
It was a darkness all my own
a song played on the radio,
it went straight to my heart
I carried it with me until the darkness was gone.
Gone (3x)

I built this cloud I can break it
The world can't change how I feel
Because I know it's a lie
My heart is real
Gone (7x)
