We're doing it I look around me, But all I seem to see, Is people going no where, Expecting sympathy It's like we're going through the motions, Of a scripted destiny Tell me where's our inspiration, If life wont wait, I guess it's up to me [Chorus] Woah! No, we're not gonna waste another moment in this town Woah! And we won't come back your world is calling out Woah! We'll leave the past in the past, Gonna find the future If misery loves company well, So long, you'll miss me when I'm gone Ooh, ooh, ooh You're gonna miss me when I'm gone Ooh, ooh, ooh Procrastination, running circles in my head While you sit there contemplating, You wound up left for dead (left for dead) Life is what happens while you're busy making your excuses Another day, another casualty And that won't happen to me [Chorus] Ooh, ooh, ooh You're gonna miss me when I'm gone Ooh, ooh, ooh You're gonna miss me when I'm gone When I'm gone, when I'm gone Let's go! Won't look back, When I say goodbye I'm gonna leave this a hole behind me, Gonna take what's mine tonight Because every wasted day becomes a wasted chance You're gonna wake up feeling sorry, Because life won't wait, I guess it's up to you [Chorus] Ooh, ooh, ooh You're gonna miss me when I'm gone Ooh, ooh, ooh You're gonna miss me when I'm gone Ooh, ooh, ooh You're gonna miss me when I'm gone Ooh, ooh, ooh You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
