The lyrics Going Going Gone - Maddie Poppe:

[Intro]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

[Verse 1]
I'm staring at the ceiling
The clock, it won't stop ticking
I feel like I've been sleeping for too long now
It's like my heart stop beating
And now I'm hardly breathing
And I'm afraid of leaving scared to break down

[Pre-Chorus]
And what am I waiting for?
Cause I don't wanna wait no more
And I'm the only soldier in this lonely world
And I don't wanna fight myself no more

[Chorus]
Maybe I was meant to run
Maybe I was born to bleed
I don't know who I'll become
But I'll be going going gone
And even if it starts to hurt
I wanna feel it 'til my whole heart burns
Cause I will be forever young
So I'll be going going going going going gone
Gone
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

[Verse 2]
Take me like I've been starving
Kiss me wothout a warning
I dont care where im going
Throw a dart at the map
Cause im ready to be wreckless
Care more so i can care less
Got money in my matress
It's a start, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
And what am I waiting for?
Cause I don't wanna wait no more
And I'm the only soldier in this lonely world
And I don't wanna fight myself no more

[Chorus]
Maybe I was meant to run (maybe I was meant to run)
Maybe I was born to bleed (maybe I was born to bleed)
I don't know who I'lll become
But I'll be going going gone (going gone)
And even if it starts to hurt
I wanna feel it 'til my whole heart burns
Cause I will be forever young
So I'll be going going going going going gone
Gone
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

[Bridge]
I'm staring at the ceiling
The clock, it won't stop ticking
I feel like I've been sleeping for too long now

[Chorus]
Maybe I was meant to run
Maybe I was born to bleed
I don't know who I'lll become
But I'll be going going gone (going gone)
And even if it starts to hurt
I wanna feel it 'til my whole heart burns
Cause I will be forever young
So I'll be going going going going gone
Gone (gone)
