Flogging Molly - If I Ever Leave This World Alive Lyrics






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

    My big brother loved Flogging Molly. He died in 2005, and this song was played at his service. I use to cry hearing it, but now it never fails to put a smile on my face. Such a great song.

    The audio is in a lower key and seems slower than the original album version. Is it to avoid copyright issues?
    Regardless, it still sounds awesome!

    Sorry fella, this separation from your brother is only temporary.
    You will meet again, hang in there till that day comes.

    My husband died in January and the truth is I'm not ok I'm not alright since he's gone from my life.

    A.... E....

    Hang in I promise one day you'll be okay and alright that's he's gone from your life.

    lost mine as well. 2 things i know: you don't get over it [ & don't let anyone tell you otherwise]. what does happen though is -- you get used to it. that's what you work towards.
    Takes about 3 or so years. first year is a fog where time stands still. lean into the pain and grief. accept it and embrace it. it's your journey now. grief, is what love gives you after loss. the deeper the love, the greater the grief and deeper the pit of despair you feel you are in.. but know the sun is always just behind the clouds. and it will shine for you again, one day.
    i used this metaphor to help my kids through their journey: imagine your life as a precious work of art, a fragile yet beautiful glass sculpture. then one day, you find your priceless art, you, your life, lays shattered on the ground, in a million fractured pieces. Your job now, is to put it back together, slowly rebuilding, taking all the memories you shared and building them into your new life, in a way that honors everything about the love you shared, because he is still there with you, by your side, just in a different way.
    We set a place for him at Thanksgiving, made his favorite dishes, talked to him, reminisced and shared stories. We have all come together every year on the day he left us, at first to grieve, but now, 14 years on, to celebrate the love we have with him, for him and for each other.
    I always say I love him, in the present tense; saying I loved him means there was an end, simply because he's gone on ahead of us. We know the love never ends. nor does the pain.. but --it does get easier, as You just get used to it. Give yourself years to get there.
    The world has 2 kinds of people: those who have experienced loss, and those who have not.Know that anyone who hasn't experienced tragic loss will not understand what you are living through. Seek out those who have, for they are your safe harbor; a place to express your thoughts and feelings in a way that isn't possible with those who have yet to lose everything they treasured in this world. Give yourself time ... but know the pit is deep and dark, its wall are steep. There will be someone whose hand will help you out. Your job will be to ask for that outstretched hand. When you are ready. <3

  61. M.... H....

    My daughter & I had a pack on this song & she passed away from cancer she is the one singing this song should of been me & not her I'm her Mimi should go first ....I cry every time I listen to this song & it's on her funeral CD

    M.... H....

    I'm so very, very, sorry that your daughter passed. I can't imagine the strength it must take to get up every day and do the things that have to be done. God bless you both. She has a job too, she is your reason to continue, she's your light. On the darkest of days when the grief and the pain threaten to overcome you, You'll think of her smile, the way she laughed, of her arms around you for a quick, sneaky, cuddle. She'll shine so brightly you'll be in no doubt she wants you to be happy and to live. My heart goes out to you, and your family. Best wishes my friend~Murph~x

  62. L.... H....

    This song rips my heart out in the most beautiful, bittersweet way...

  63. M.... S....

    My husband passed away 9/2019, just 3 months after our 54th wedding anniversary. My son sent a link to this song. It really helped me to remember that my husband will always be with me in spirit and memories and I will join him someday.

    My grandpa used to have the movie 'PS I Love You' recorded and every single time he wanted to hear this song he would watch through the entire movie just so he could hear the song at the end (I don't think he knew there was a fast-forward function) until I finally caught on to this and explained I could just go to youtube and put it on for him

  66. D.... T....

    Hearing this live last night for the first time in my life was so tearful and yet amazing. ❤️

  67. G.... V....

    My dad wishes this song on his burial.

  68. P.... W....

    This was always a great song. When my dad died, even though we were not close, it changed my life. I have already put this down for my own funeral. If you like this of stuff, please check out Warblefly & loa

  75. S.... C....

    They were formed in Los Angeles and played at an irish pub named Molly's

  76. S.... C....

    Flogging Molly is not from Ireland... I know that this is probably not a popular opinion... But...

  77. C.... ....

    That’s right, I’m Irish. Born and raised.

  78. k.... L....

    @More joe thank you

    D.... M....

    Debbie God bless you and your family. R. I. P your son. Brilliant song choice. My friend had this played at her sons funeral. I would like this at mine, not being morbid. I think it has beautiful lyrics for the family and friends left behind.

  80. K.... 7....

    This song is simply just beautiful and is one of my favourite songs ,I hope its played at my funeral hopefully in a long time ,for my sons to know " I'll be hear when it all gets weird " xx

  81. c.... s....

    cheers dad see you soon

  82. M.... ....

    What a lovely death song

  83. M.... C....

    Maybe if we send you off into space alive. You will die in space but you will make it off earth alive. But how scary dieing in space

  84. M.... C....

    Ain't nobody getting out alive . Untill we start shooting people off into space

  85. N.... W....

    Part of my funeral playlist.

  86. M.... R....

    My husband died last year and this song speaks to my heart.

  87. g.... ....

    Reading these comments is making me cry.

  88. R.... ....

    This is the song at my funeral...epic.

  89. l.... l....

    I'm sick a lot. And have always known I'll die before everyone I love. When I'm sick bad and am depressed feeling close to death. This song helps me to think, it'll be okay and I can come back down and sit at the feet of my true love when I go. I may cry the whole song but it helps. Makes me cherish the people who love me. And truly thank them for the things they did in my life. However long or short it turns out to be.

  90. j.... ....

    It’s been one year since I heard you passed, bro. I heard you were in good spirits when you left us and I’m sorry I couldn’t be by your side. Remember when mg band played that show with the nazis in the crowd, you got us home safely. Or the time you drove your truck up the light pole! Haha. I always thought you were too tough to die. I miss you, my friend. Rest easy, Josh.

  91. J.... S....

    ❤️❤️

  92. D.... N....

    My sister's girlfriend passed away a couple of weeks ago. I know we're part Irish but she's there only one that looks like a damn leprechaun lol, short with green eyes and bright red hair. I'm planning on going to see social distortion in a few months and these guys are opening for them. I wanted to listen to them a bit before I go see them and suprise! This song was already saved in my phone (my son likes them so I'm sure it was him) I've been listening to it now for almost 2 hours. I'm pretty sure it was there for my sister so I sent this to her. We all love and miss you so much Shirley 😿💚

  93. T.... T....

    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

  95. H.... H....

    I love you Rob Boswell. You'll be with my for the rest of my life. I know you will. I cant thank you enough for helping me, saving me from the last person. I helped you as much as I could. The rest was you baby. I'll miss you like hell. Thank you for showing me life and being in it with your cooky "spicy mchaggis" self.

  96. M.... K....

    My mum died in 2013, and dad passed in 2016. Both gone before I turned 30. Different relationships, but miss them dearly, both. This song always makes me think of them. "I'll be here when it all gets weird." They were fairly conservative, yet marched to their own drums. I loved them so.

    Lemme get a glass raised to Michael and Mary! May they rest in peace. 🥂

    M.... K....

    Cheers love. Losing loved ones is hard and I dread the day my parents pass. I hope there is a paradise, or heaven, or afterlife, and I hope one day we get to spend an eternity with our loved ones in peace.

    M.... K....

    Feel for your loss, so sad but dont fret , god or the creator is real and their spirits are with his loving embrace right now so take a small comfort and peace in that Michelle 🙏
