I pick the paper up,
God got another one
It makes me wonder
if what I do is not enough, ooh
Lump in my throat,
took the high road
Easy to be brave when
the road's already pathed
Sometimes I only see
what's standin' right in
front of me, no
Wanna believe in
something bigger
Can't always see the
bigger picture
Can you tell me why
the good die young?
Where do they go?
Why do they leave us
When there's so much
more to be done?
And do they know
how much we need 'em?
Can you tell me
why the good die young?
Oh-oh-ooh-oh
Can you tell me
why the good die young?
Woah-oh-ooh-oh
A whole nation with
heavy hearts in their chests
Nobody's got the words,
but we're so afraid of the silence
Wanna believe in
something bigger (oh noo)
Can't always see
the bigger picture
Can you tell me
why the good die young?
Where do they go?
Why do they leave us
When there's so
much more to be done?
And do they know
how much we need 'em?
Can you tell me
why the good die young?
Oh-oh-ooh-oh
Can you tell me
why the good die young?
Woah-oh-ooh-oh
People dying,
I'm not crying for attention
I want change
(I want change, I want change)
What does it take
for us to wake up?
We gotta learn to love again
(love again, love again)
If this is a lesson
Then I don't think I get it
No, I don't think I get it
Can you tell me why the good die young?
Where do they go? Why do they leave us
When there's so much more to be done?
And do they know, oh!
Can you tell me why the good die young?
Oh yeah
Can you tell me, can anybody tell me
Why the good die young? Oh-oh-ooh-oh
Can you tell me why the good die young?
Woah-oh-ooh-oh
Why do the good, why do the good die young, oh yeah
Oh, there's so much more
So much more work to be done
Oh, no no no no
