If I die tomorrow, do not mourn my fading soul, for I've been broken all my life and finally, I'll be whole. And if I die tomorrow, no longer bound to Earth am I for I'll be on the winds using my wings to finally fly. I used to think I was everything but now I know I was wrong. I'm not important and I can't believe it took me so long to realize that a shadow like me fades in the morning light and to realize that no one cares if I am ever alright. So if I die tomorrow, don't say I mattered at all; I know I don't 'cause no one ever comes when I call. And if I die tomorrow, and you hear a lonely cry, just know that was my final lonely goodbye.

If I Die Tomorrow
If I die tomorrow, do not mourn my fading soul, for I've been broken all my life and finally, I'll be whole. And if I die tomorrow, no longer bound to Earth am I for I'll be on the winds using my wings to finally fly. I used to think I was everything but now I know I was wrong. I'm not important and I can't believe it took me so long to realize that a shadow like me fades in the morning light and to realize that no one cares if I am ever alright. So if I die tomorrow, don't say I mattered at all; I know I don't 'cause no one ever comes when I call. And if I die tomorrow, and you hear a lonely cry, just know that was my final lonely goodbye.
