 (Verse 1)
 I could say that I'll always  be here for you,
 But that  would be a lie and quite a pointless  thing to do.
 And I could say that I'll always  have feelings for you,
 But I've  got a life ahead of me, I'm  only 22.
 (Chorus)
 Since you've gone  I've lost that  chip on my shoulder,
 Since you've gone  I feel like  I've gotten older,
 And now you're gone  it's as if the whole  wide world is my stage,
 And now you're gone  it's like I've been let out of my cage.
 (Instrumental)
 (Verse 2)
 You always made it clear that you  hated my friends,
 You made  me feel so guilty when I was  running round with them.
 And everything was always about  being cool,
 But now  I've come to realise there's nothing cool  about you at all.
 (Chorus)
 Since you've gone  I've lost that  chip on my shoulder,
 Since you've gone  I feel like  I've gotten older,
 And now you're gone  it's as if the whole  wide world is my stage,
 And now you're gone  it's like I've been let out of my cage.
 (Instrumental)
 (Chorus)
 Since you've gone  I've lost that  chip on my shoulder,
 Since you've gone  I feel like  I've gotten older,
 And now you're gone  it's as if the whole  wide world is my stage,
 And now you're gone  it's like I've been let out of my cage.
 (Outro)
