lyrics

Pretty soon I'll disappear
My body turned to ash
I'll burn up in the atmosphere
This form will never last

Tell my momma that I love her
Tell my daddy too
If you ever get this letter
Know these words are true:

I never meant to do you harm
But now I haven't got too long

If anything's left when my body disappears
No, I won't forget you
You know, I can't forget you
I did my best but I failed you through all these years
I understand if you can't, but I hope, I pray, oh, baby please:
Don't forget me

I see the ocean, the world spinning
Miles beneath my feet
My enclosure's disintegrating
My maker shall I meet

I disconnect my breathing tube
My final breath, I think of you
I know you're mad, this I see
It's all for you now, It's killing me
It's killing me

If anything's left when my body disappears
No, I won't forget you
You know, I can't forget you
I did my best but I failed you through all these years
I understand if you can't, but I hope, I pray, oh, baby please:
Don't forget me

You'll never undersand what I did
It's for the greater good, I guess
'Cause honey, you're alive and I'm dead
It's all for the best
I said, it's all for the best

If anything's left when my body disappears
No, I won't forget you
You know, I can't forget you
I did my best but I failed you through all these years
I understand if you can't, but I hope, I pray, oh, baby please:
Don't forget me
