Lyrics

"Dead ~N~ Gone"


Hook:

When I'm dead and gone
Will you remember me?
Will you shed any tears?
Or will you be happy?
I know a lot of people
Wish Id leave them alone
Don't worry I will
When I'm dead and gone.
(x2)

Verse one:

I do stupid things
Why do I act this way?
If I said I couldn't help it
Then what would you say?
Would you try to understand?
Or tell me I was lying
Tell me that I could
But I wasn't really trying.
Well I've trying
For twenty-one years
I just can't change
So I'm steady shedding tears
Now death is one my mind
Every minute of every day
I don't know how to change
I guess I'm stuck this way
I'm tired of messing up
I'm tired of feeling down
I'm tired of feeling like
I'm face down on the ground
When I'm dead and gone
Everything'll be ok
I want have to watch
Every word that I say
I hurt people I love
And I make them mad
I put it on myself
Till the point I feel sad
And when I'm feeling sad
I wonder what's the purpose
I might as well be gone
Ill do the world a service

Hook:

When I'm dead and gone
Will you remember me?
Will you shed any tears?
Or will you be happy?
I know a lot of people
Wish Id leave them alone
Don't worry I will
When I'm dead and gone.
(x2)

Verse two:

Now its getting cold
And its hard to breath
If I died right now
Would you miss me?
Probably not
I mean, why would you care?
So I take one last breath
Then I'm outta here
Now I'm floating above
And I'm looking down
You know, its funny
Nobody notices I'm not around
Except for one
Why is she crying? She didn't care
And if she did why didn't she show me?
While I was here
Oh well its to late
Now I'm dead and gone
And at my funeral
They played this song
Then only god can judge me
By 2 Pac rang out
And the rain started pouring
When they put me in the ground
Then they covered me up
And everybody left
Except for one,
There's still one person left
Who could it be?
I cant see
Who could it be?
That's crying over me
I wish I could come back
Just to say its ok
But I'm sorry, I cant
Because I've gone away
So never again
Will I see your face?
And never again
Will I see this place?
Never again
Will I shed a tear?
So make time count
While I'm still here

Hook:

When I'm dead and gone
Will you remember me?
Will you shed any tears?
Or will you be happy?
I know a lot of people
Wish Id leave them alone
Don't worry I will
When I'm dead and gone.
(x2)

If you're listening to this song
And I'm dead and gone
Then remember one thing
That you'll never be alone
Just close your eyes
And think about me
Picture my face
And then you'll see
If you're feeling down
Like your all alone
Remember I'm still around
After I'm dead and gone

Hook:

When I'm dead and gone
Will you remember me?
Will you shed any tears?
Or will you be happy?
I know a lot of people
Wish Id leave them alone
Don't worry I will
When I'm dead and gone.
