lyrics

will my words be remembered when i'm gone?
will they be sung by other singers when i'm done?
i want my voice to rise over this city
i want to be remembered

so would you condescend to help me, my friends?
i'm trying to lose myself in song
i'm looking at the audience
i am singing to the stars

i want my songs to fly out on the airwaves
& to spin out through the endless void of space
until they're picked up on some strange & distant planet
& i will be remembered

so would you condescend to help me, my friends?
i'm trying to lose myself in song
i'm looking at the audience
i am singing
to the stars

so when it comes to the time they carve my tombstone
i hope the words they use will be my own
but when they come to look for the body
i will not be there
i will have turned into the song
