Lyrics

When I die
Will you remember what I looked like?
Will you remember the things I liked to do?
I like to pretend that you would, but
who will remember when it's time for you?

You see, I have the greatest stories
Of the things I've done through my life
Now, doesn't that count for somethin
That should never be lost in time

Nobody cares that I'm dead
I'm all alone in the end
The forgotten man cries out
Over and over again

I had the greatest friend that ever lived
Her name was Boston but we called her B
If I even think of her, I cry in sorrow
Because she means so much to me

So I ask you how can someone
so important simply fade away in time
I wish that memory would last forever
Even when I've left this world behind

Nobody cares that I'm dead
I'm all alone in the end
The forgotten man cries out
Over and over again

It's hard to think that all my work
is done for nothing else
Than just to pass the time
The age-old mountain,
Man has struggled to get passed,
And leave something behind

You see, he has the greatest stories
Of the things he's done through his life
Oh I wish that memory would last forever
Even when I've left this world behind

Oh, nobody cares that I'm dead
I'm all alone in the end
The forgotten man cries out
Over and over again

Over and over again
