When I'm Dead
Stabbing Westward
Darkest Days (1998)

I know the tears your crying in your bed alone at night
i've cried those tears a thousand times
those shallow empty songs about suicide are partronizing
you've got to learn to face your fears

or do you think i'll be less lonely when i'm dead
it can't silence all the voices in my head
i close my eyes but i can't make it go away
do you think i'll be less lonely
can i claim that i'm less lonely
when i'm dead

when i'm dead i won't feel anything
when i'm dead i won't feel anything

i know the songs you're singing saying nothing loud and clear
i've heard that song a thousand times
your noble empty lies about suicide are patronizing
you can never understand what i feel

or do you think i'll be less lonely when i'm dead
it can't silence all the voices in my head
i close my eyes but i can't make it go away
do you think i'll be less lonely
can i claim that i'm less lonely
when i'm dead
