When it happens

There will be mourning

A tweet storm in my name

My best picture in a frame

That's how it usually goes

Oh, it's a contest

Of who really knew me best

Old photos would be found

Captioned with something profound

A memory nobody knows

So weep for me, my darling dear

Tomorrow you'll move on

I will leave my body here

But you've got miles to go

In a life I'll never know

So move on

Oh, when it happens

There'll be unmooring

Visitors in black

Wish for time they can't get back

Oh, it's a conquest

For who is grieving best

The tragedy is fresh

But when bones are laid to rest

You go on as you were before

Weep for me, my darling dear

Tomorrow you'll move on

I will leave my body here

But you've got miles to go

In a life I'll never know

So move on

The Wikipedia articles will be so quick to change

Present tense to past, how someone does this is still strange

The world will talk about it for a week

But I have found that everything is just fine without me

Weep for me, my darling dear

Tomorrow you'll move on

I will leave my body here

While you soar on your own

To a life I'll never know

So move on along

- It's already the end -
