You're Gonna Miss Me When I'm Gone
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
If all my family bites the dust
I'm still alive to carry on
When the venom meets your eyes
Turn around, and I'll be gone
For a while, you phoned it in
But you couldn't shed your skin
When it's over, cut your ties
And you don't even have a chance
Like a heart without a head
All my friends said, "I thought you were dead"
I think I'll take a bow instead
(Ah) you won't remember me, but I won't be alone
(Ah) you're gonna miss me when I'm gone
Get out before you start to feel
Like a pile of hand-me-downs
And the eyes in the back of your head say
"Shut up, boy, she don't want you around"
The daily affliction says it all
You saw the writing on the wall
Better all alone than dead
Take a pill, and fix your head
Come on, baby, shed no tears
You haven't made up your mind in years
It's too late for souvenirs
Don't spoil the fantasy, you've had it for so long
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone, yeah, yeah
(Ah) you won't remember me, but I won't be alone
(Ah) you're gonna miss me when I'm gone, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Come on, baby, shed no tears
You haven't made up your mind in years
It's too late for souvenirs
Don't spoil the fantasy, you've had it for so long
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone, yeah, yeah
(Ah) you won't remember me, but I won't be alone
(Ah) you're gonna miss me when I'm gone, yeah
If all my family bites the dust
I'm still alive to carry on
When the venom meets your eyes
Turn around, and I'll be gone
For a while, you phoned it in
But you couldn't shed your skin
When it's over, cut your ties
And you don't even have a chance
Like a heart without a head
All my friends said, "I thought you were dead"
I think I'll take a bow instead
(Ah) you won't remember me, but I won't be alone
(Ah) you're gonna miss me when I'm gone
Get out before you start to feel
Like a pile of hand-me-downs
And the eyes in the back of your head say
"Shut up, boy, she don't want you around"
The daily affliction says it all
You saw the writing on the wall
Better all alone than dead
Take a pill, and fix your head
Come on, baby, shed no tears
You haven't made up your mind in years
It's too late for souvenirs
Don't spoil the fantasy, you've had it for so long
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone, yeah, yeah
(Ah) you won't remember me, but I won't be alone
(Ah) you're gonna miss me when I'm gone, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Come on, baby, shed no tears
You haven't made up your mind in years
It's too late for souvenirs
Don't spoil the fantasy, you've had it for so long
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone, yeah, yeah
(Ah) you won't remember me, but I won't be alone
(Ah) you're gonna miss me when I'm gone, yeah
