I pick the paper up, God got another one It makes me wonder if what I do is that enough, ooh Lump in my throat, took the high road Easy to be brave when the road's already paved 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-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-ooh-oh People dying, I'm not crying for attention I won't change (I won't change, I won't 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-ooh-oh oh yeah Oh, there's so much more, so much more work to be done Oh, no no no no, oh yeah
