Tom Kingston - When You're Gone Lyrics

So tell it as it is
Enough with all your stories
I'll look right in eyes
And stare in the abyss
A product of your time
Blinded by the glory
Competing at the worst of times
In a tournament of clowns
So what if you forget
The urge to be remembered
You'll feel it if it hurts
It only lasts a while
Who'll remember when you're gone
Who'll remember when you're gone
Who'll remember when you're gone
Who'll remember when you're gone
You'll die a second time
Gone and then forgotten
It'll only been one hundred years
'Till no one speaks your name
And you're family moves on
You're flesh gets burned or rotten
Oh why are we alive again?
Who'll remember when you're gone
Who'll remember when you're gone
Who'll remember when you're gone
Who'll remember when you're gone
So why are you afraid
To live a life worth living
It'll only be one hundred years
