The Good Die Young

[Verse 1]

You wake up

Watch the world go round

You shiver

Feeling upside down

Your heart is beating fast

Pumping blood to your head

Another day to fight

You have a prayer on your lips under the desert sun

And a loaded gun

You remember

That your father said

Stay out of trouble son

And be true to yourself

You'll be working like a dog

Raise a family

And life will be alright

But now it's written in the stars if you'll make it out alive

Out alive

[Chorus]

The good die young

There might be no tomorrow

In god we trust

Through all this pain and sorrow

The good die young

The flame will burn forever

And no one knows your name

Bring the boys back home again

[Verse 2]

It was a quiet day

On the streets of hope

When the bomb went off

At the side of the road

Sounds of breaking steel

An windshield full of blood

No enemy in sight

It feels like in a movie scenes are passing by

It's your life

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]

You remember every word

That your father said

Stay out of trouble son

And be true to yourself

Get a prayer on your lips under the desert sun

And a loaded gun

[Chorus]
