Music Friday Prompt #5 “If I Ever Leave This World Alive” performed by Flogging Molly

Welcome to another episode of Music Friday here on Mindlovemisery Menagerie! So far, our journey through music has been a strange twisty path. Today’s selection is no exception. All I can think is ‘Don’t die on me, Jerry!’ Or at least don’t stop those sweet but creepy notes 😀

“If I Ever Leave This World Alive”

If I ever leave this world alive
I’ll thank for all the things you did in my life
If I ever leave this world alive
I’ll come back down and sit beside your
feet tonight
Wherever I am you’ll always be
More than just a memory
If I ever leave this world alive

If I ever leave this world alive
I’ll take on all the sadness
That I left behind
If I ever leave this world alive
The madness that you feel will soon subside
So in a word don’t shed a tear
I’ll be here when it all gets weird
If I ever leave this world alive

So when in doubt just call my name
Just before you go insane
If I ever leave this world
Hey I may never leave this world
But if I ever leave this world alive

She says I’m okay; I’m alright,
Though you have gone from my life
You said that it would,
Now everything should be all right

She says I’m okay; I’m alright,
Though you have gone from my life
You said that it would,
Now everything should be all right
Yeah should be alright
