Everyone Loves You When You're Dead - Strata

You know you can’t take it with you

So nothing’s really yours

Your dreams, your nightmares

High hopes and worst fears

Are borrowed and rented like whores

Everyone loves you when you’re dead

No one remembers all the stupid shit you said

Yeah you’ll be forgiven

Just not while you’re livin'

But everyone loves you when you’re dead

You’re gonna fucking love me when I’m dead

And so it goes

You take your secrets with you into the grave

And everybody just remembers a saint

And all the built up guilt you carry they bury it with your failures and call

you a king

Everyone loves you when you’re dead

No one remembers all the stupid shit you said

Yeah you’ll be forgiven

Just not while you’re livin'

But everyone loves you when you’re dead

Now it’s gone

Every fuck up and mistake that you made

Every dollar that your struggled to waste

And all the shit that’s got you twisting and turning like blisters burning

you’re earning your wings

Everyone loves you when you’re dead

No one remembers all the stupid shit you said

Yeah you’ll be forgiven

Just not while you’re livin'

But everyone loves you when you’re dead

Congratulations

You’re dead
