When I'm Gone

When I'm gone what shall be left of my world?
A world of ruins, crumbled and broken?
Reminders of mistakes and the truth unspoken
Will you remember me?

Will you remember who I was or who I should have been?
Think about my actions instead of my reasons
Hold the past against me as I fade away
Would you still care?

Would you still care about the small moments we did have
Late night talks and secret shared laughs
When you told me your dreams and I told you mine
Would you keep me alive?

Would you keep me alive and rehash our time together?
Or hate me because I lied when I said forever
Try to understand my decision to do this
Will you still love me?

Will you still love me even though I'm gone?
Smile and pretend nothing's wrong?
Keep me in the back of your mind
Would you forget me eventually?
