Machine Gun Kelly – ​Play This When I'm Gone lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm writing you this message just so I can say that I love you
I had to let you know that everything about me was you, yeah
I think it's time for me to leave, but I'll never leave you
I just looked at your pictures, so the last thing I did was see you

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm 29, my anxiety's eating me alive
I'm fightin' with myself and my sobriety every night
And last time I couldn't barely open up my eyes, I apologize

[Chorus]
I'm not gonna lie and tell you, "It's alright, it's alright"
You're gonna cry and baby, that's alright, it's alright
I wrote you this song to keep when I'm gone
If you ever feel alone
You're gonna cry and baby, that's alright, it's alright

[Verse 2]
I hope you get to go to all the places that I showed you
When I was on the road and couldn't be home to hold you
Part of me doesn't want this cruel world to know you
So just try and keep in mind everything that I told you

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm 29, and society's eating me alive
I'm fighting what comes with this notoriety every night
This is the last time I'll ever open up my eyes, I apologize

[Chorus]
I'm not gonna lie and tell you, "It's alright, it's alright"
You're gonna cry and baby, that's alright, it's alright
I wrote you this song to keep when I'm gone
If you ever feel alone
You're gonna cry and baby, that's alright, it's alright

[Bridge]
And I'll miss you, I'll miss you, I'll miss you, I'll miss you, yeah
And I'll miss you, I'll miss you, I'll miss you, I'll miss you
And I'll miss you (I'll miss you), I'll miss you (I'll miss you)
I'll miss you (I'll miss you), I'll miss you, yeah
And I'll miss you (I'll miss you), I'll miss you (I'll miss you)
I'll miss you (I'll miss you), I'll miss you

[Outro]
And I'll miss you, I'll miss you, I'll miss you, I'll miss you, yeah
And I'll miss you, I'll miss you, I'll miss you, I'll miss you

    One of my dear friends just passed and I felt like he was actually speaking to me through this song. It made me both happy and sad. I have a hard time voicing my true feelings and emotions verbally so maybe this is away that I can work through the grief. I wish I had the chance to tell him that I truly loved him with every inch of my being, heart, , mind, body, and soul.
