Gone Sovereign Lyrics

[Verse 1]
No one's laughing now...
No one's laughing now...
I'm sullen and sated
And you can't put a price on me
I won't share this disarray
I won't pull these hands away
I need to be chosen
And, my God, don't pray for me

[Chorus]
So scatter all my ashes when I'm dead
And shatter every legend in my head
If only the committed will survive...
Is anybody here still left alive?

This is mine

[Verse 2]
Come no further, you'll go too far
I'm running round in circles once again
If you can't forgive me, I won't take it very hard
But I won't make it easy in the end

[Chorus]
So scatter all my ashes when I'm dead
And shatter every legend in my head
If only the contented will survive...
Is anybody here still left alive?
[Refrain]
This is mine
This is mine
Yeah

[Chorus]
So scatter all my ashes when I'm dead
And shatter every legend in my head
If only the committed will survive...
Is anybody here still left alive?

[Outro]
This is mine, mine, mine, mine

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
