When I'm Gone

Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
We're doing it. I look around me, But all I seem to see, Is people going no where, Expecting sympathy. It's like we're going through the motions, Of a scripted destiny. Tell me where's our inspiration, If life won't wait, I guess it's up to me. [Chorus] Woah! No, we're not gonna waste another moment in this town. Woah! And we won't come back your world is calling out. Woah! We'll leave the past in the past, Gonna find the future. If misery loves company well, So long, you'll miss me when I'm gone. Ooh, ooh, ooh. You're gonna miss me when I'm gone. Ooh, ooh, ooh. Procrastination, running circles in my head. While you sit there contemplating, You wound up left for dead (left for dead) Life is what happens while you're busy making your excuses. Another day, another casualty. And that won't happen to me. [Chorus] Ooh, ooh, ooh. You're gonna miss me when I'm gone. Ooh, ooh, ooh. You're gonna miss me when I'm gone. When I'm gone- Let's go! Won't look back, When I say goodbye. I'm gonna leave this a hole behind me, Gonna take what's mine tonight. Because every wasted day becomes a wasted chance. You're gonna wake up feeling sorry, Because life won't wait, I guess it's up to you. [Chorus] Ooh, ooh, ooh. You're gonna miss me when I'm gone. Ooh, ooh, ooh. You're gonna miss me when I'm gone. Ooh, ooh, ooh. You're gonna miss me when I'm gone. Ooh, ooh, ooh. You're gonna miss me when I'm gone.
