Cherish it only to destroy it
You burned it to the ground
ALL IS LOST, ALL IS GONE

You spoke of friends but sang solely for yourself
You cashed us in with all our checks
And now there's nothing left

We won't forget you cried out loud
Or slammed the door on your way out
You know you never wanted to be friends

And all this time you ran the show
Who's gonna miss you in the end?
Who's gonna miss you when you're gone?
Your anchor sank this sailing ship
Who's gonna pull you from the wreck?
Who's gonna miss you when you're gone? (WHEN YOU'RE GONE)

Take it away again
It was your flawed master plan
FACE YOURSELF, BREAK OR BEND

A faceless thief dressed up in uniform
It would be easier to give up now
While you're down

Tiptoe through your minefield!

And all this time you ran the show
Who's gonna miss you in the end?
Who's gonna miss you when you're gone?
Your anchor sank this sailing ship
Who's gonna drag you to the shore?
Who's gonna miss you when you're gone? (WHEN YOU'RE GONE)

They say "old dogs never die!"
And now we all see why!

I'm smiling in mourning
You're longing for glory
He who laughs last doesn't always win
I don't know where to begin

And all this time you ran the show
Who's gonna miss you in the end?
Your anchor sank this sailing ship
Who's gonna pull you from the wreck?
Who's gonna miss you when you're gone?
