Forever's Gone

My eyes are tired
My knees are weak
My breath is shallow
I can't speak
My thoughts they wake me in my sleep
and I can't smile and so I weep
I'm Falling apart
at the ends again
I hope in my heart
you remember when
you said you loved me
but that was long ago
you said forever
you told me so

But forever aint all that ling
Its gone within a song

I remember the tears you cried
I know the truth behind your lies
Your mask's a failed disguise
I can see the sadness in your eyes
I wish I was there to hold you
No one knows you like i know you
I've studied all of your soul
I'm yours til I grow old

But forever aint all that long
It's gone within a song

You're gone
You're gone

Said forever aint all that long
But I'm still holding on

Artist Biography

Johnny Vannz is a lifetime Songwriter that has lied beneath the surface, imprisoned by mental illness and a childhood that made him believe he wasn't worth the words he wrote. Through many years, books of trashed lyrics, and a lifetime of struggles, he has been able to fight his way out of the garbage with a guitar, a pad, and a pencil... and in his pockets you will find nothing but the stories of how he's survived it all, the pain he's endured, and everything in between. Johnny's ability to ignore the rules, in light of always making his own way, is the one bit of confidence he is bringing with him. With songs about love, the poor mans life, drugs and dreams; you're sure to find a lick that inspires you to relate to one, or many, of his breathtaking stories. Just search johnny Vannz on the internet (there's only one) and see how a guy from the trailer park can pick you up out of your seat and take you to another world.

Artist Statement

My entire life revolves around telling stories. I voluntarily surrended my drivers license so I could slow down and examine the things I feel need explaining. Walk with me. Pay attention. I've got a lot of shit to tell you...
