lyrics

The version of you that I like the most is gone
Something inside you told your heart, “you better run”
Now I am left with these thoughts in my head
They worry me, follow me straight to my bed
The version of you that I like the most is gone

All that remains is the shell of the person you were
Try to recall, but you came and you went in a blur
I’m scared to find if I open my eyes
That the man you’ve become was the one who’s inside
So all that remains is the shell of the person you were

Gone are the days where I knew you
Gone are the days where you cared
You were the one who could see through
Me when I said I wasn’t scared
We all move on, we all untie
We bend to break, we bloom to die
I try to find you, but you’re gone

I walk around with the pieces of you in my hands
How did it get here, that’s what I don’t understand
I have tried tape and cement and glue,
I’ve tried everything, but it never makes you
So I walk around with the pieces of you in my hands

Gone are the days where I knew you
Gone are the days where you cared
You were the one who could see through
Me when I said I wasn’t scared
We all move on, we all untie
We bend to break, we bloom to die
I try to find you, but you’re gone

I shouldn’t waste my time
Connecting dots to lines
Solving mysteries that aren’t mine

Gone are the days where I knew you
Gone are the times where I tried
Figuring out what got into
You before we said goodbye
We all move on, we all untie
We bend to break, we bloom to die
I tried to find you, but you’re gone
I try to find you, but you’re gone

EJ Carey Boston, Massachusetts

If you took the angst ridden anthems of the 2000s and combined them with the truth bearing storytelling of country music, you’d find yourself listening to EJ Carey. EJ’s blend of pop rock packs an emotional punch by reintroducing the sounds of her teen years to the age of Spotify under the guise of confessional plot-driven songwriting.
EJ's new EP “Outlier” is available everywhere now. ... more
