The dead, leaving my memories
can't they please
just stay
I'll fail my history class
I many never pass
this way

And as much as I try
I can not remember
the dates
The teacher understands
but he can't
figure out why
I forget the names
and great deads
Can't they please
just stay
I'll fail my history class
I may never pass
this way

Heroes
they always leave
can't they please
just stay
But how they get in the way!

Tell me what good
is studying the dead
I'm living!

The dead, leaving my memories
can't they please
just stay
I'll fail my history class
I many never pass
this way
