《When I'm Gone》的詞曲作者和演唱者是美國流行搖滾歌手艾薇兒·拉維妮（Avril Lavigne）。
完整歌詞如下：
When I'm gone, when I'm gone,
I don't want my friends to remember me like this,
All these bottles, roaches, need a rest,
Sobriety’s fine when I’m gone.
Just got out of jail and everything’s okay,
Looking through my texts from days of old,
If you miss me then I miss you too,
Now get over it and move on.
And if I’m gone, oh my love,
Is there somebody who will remember how?
Are we like lovers in some Hollywood,
Like an endless love song in the radio?
Like, like we don’t even care about the pain,
And I’m still feeling like a kid in the back of a car,
But when I’m gone, when I’m gone.
So this is it, I guess I’ll be moving on,
To the next town, just me and my old clothes,
Gonna wash off all the memories of you,
I hope that you don’t miss me when I’m gone.
Just got out of jail and everything’s okay,
Looking through my texts from days of old,
If you miss me then I miss you too,
Now get over it and move on.
And if I’m gone, oh my love,
Is there somebody who will remember how?
Are we like lovers in some Hollywood?
Like an endless love song in the radio.
And if I’m gone, oh my love, oh my love.
這是一首充滿了對愛情和生活的反思的歌曲，當我消失的時候，我並不希望我的朋友記住我這樣的我，而是希望他們能過上更好的生活。整首歌充滿了對生活的感悟和自我反省，也體現了作者對生活的熱愛和無畏。
