death loves youth

well

i heard today the saddest words

another friend has gone from this world

simple life he'd had but the bitter truth

is that the good die young and death loves youth

and although i wish with all my soul

there can be no better goal

for us to shed all the bitter fruit

but the good die young and death loves youth

and far way they're making plans

to steal from this world yet another man

with one word here and another there

they've prepared a grave for us to share

so how am i to take revenge

on a world that seems to never end?

from taking all of the sweetest fruit

if i don't stop now i'll never know

so why did the good ones die

when there's plenty left that spit in your eye

they seem to live forever on

but death loves youth and the good die young

so don't you laugh

don't you cry

don't you dare spit in my eye

before me now i have the final proof

that the good die young and death loves youth
