[00:08.06]50,000 voices rising every time he'd sing,
[00:16.53]And every word he ever wrote reflecting back to him.
[00:25.44]Another obituary in the paper today,
[00:29.28]One more for the list of those who've already fallen.
[00:33.46]Another one of our comrades is taken down,
[00:37.09]Like so many others of our calling.
[00:40.33]
[00:42.02]We tweet our anecdotes, our commentary,
[00:45.75]Or we sing his songs in some sad tribute,
[00:49.64]While the tabloids are holding a story of kiss and tell,
[00:54.07]That he's no longer able to deny or refute.
[00:57.31]50,000 voices rising every time he'd sing,
[01:05.87]And every word he ever wrote reflecting back to him.
[01:12.25]
[01:14.44]Still believing that old lie, the one that your own face betrays,
[01:22.39]Rock Stars don't ever die, they only fade away.
[01:30.40]How well I remember the stadiums we played,
[01:34.63]And the lights sweeping across a sea of 50,000 souls we'd face.
[01:39.87]A serious drug that you could never kick,
[01:43.15]Or one that you couldn't imagine you'd ever replace.
[01:47.59]We flew like kites on the wings of amphetamine,
[01:51.73]Secured only to a bass line and a snare drum beat.
[01:55.76]But really what did any of it mean?
[01:59.06]When there's a higher philosophy in reflection and defeat.
[02:02.39]
[02:03.73]50,000 hands are raised to a man that's just like you and me.
[02:12.22]We create the gods we can and gift them immortality.
[02:20.13]Still believing that old lie, the one that your own face betrays,
[02:29.04]Rock Stars don't ever die, they only fade away.
[02:37.31]50,000 voices rising every time he'd sing,
[02:44.88]And every word he ever wrote reflecting back to him.
[02:53.45]Still believing that old lie, the one that your own face betrays,
[03:01.76]Rock Stars don't ever die, they only fade away, fade away...
