Death Loves Youth

I heard today the saddest words

Another friend has gone from this world

A simple life he had but the bitter truth

Is the good die young and the death loves youth

And although I wish with all my soul

There can be no better goal

For us to shed all that bitter fruit

The good die young and death loves youth

And far away 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

How am I to take revenge

Upon a world that seems to never end

Taking all the sweetest souls

If I don't stop now I'll never know

So why is it that the good ones die

When there's plenty left as would spit in your eye

They seem to live forever on

But the death loves youth and the good die young

Don't you laugh and 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 the death loves youth
