Genesis - The Good Die Young lyrics

The Good Die Young I'm the victim, yet I feel accused. My whole life been abused, at times just a little misused. Left feeling the blues. Seeing the color in every hue It's my only salvation, as I begin cry. Wipe away your tears young blood, it'll all go away it just takes time Patience is my key, and knowledge is the lock Time to be grateful as I spin back the clock Reminisce on the the memories, better hold on tight You just might get lost witnessing such a sight Don't fight young blood, just fly and be free Let it all go of the past, that pain, the poisonous clarity Am I wrong wishing, as I pray for better days God is with me see now, I see it in his faith But goodness I have to ask Why do the Good Die Young. So early before their song is sung Yeah baby believe me Good Die Young But nobody can seem to tell me why, maybe it's all just a lie I see it everyday, its the reason I stay up and pray. Wishing for those better days They casted me out in the street, now I gotta stand on my own two feet Cause who are we to say who lives n dies, please just take shot. All this judgment upon others needs to stop What are we living for please just take it, on my knees praying for my own salvation The tragedy is that we all need love and care, but we push away everybody who's there Until your left all alone, in the danger zone. One created by your own mind, be at peace baby just take your time Life's so short precious as the air we breath, stop speaking and fight for the peace Cause blood best believe that The Good Die Young You can hear the outcry of thier voices no one can be silienced. Even past all this pointless violence Kids struggling to make you proud, just to be turned away Man one of reasons I cry everyday Mothers shed a river of tears, she needs your love even after all these years Young blood I know the Good Die Young, that's why I'm sitting here speaking this song Can anybody tell me why. The Good Die Young There's a tragedy in the wake, the moment you feel straight outta place Keep your head, cause life goes on Hear the words behind my song I ask again can't we just be free, away from all this uncertainty Now will it all get worse, cause I've been trapped since birth Don't get no weaker or no harder, even faced with a life without your father No one knew the boy was broken, every moment he laid up toking Hear and now the word is spoken. Rest in paradise, there you'll find your peace. Past all the grief Baby why do the Good Die So Young Don't cry now cause I understand, it's all apart of God's divine plan Take em to a better place on among the clouds, only then will they be free to scream out loud Best believe blood that The Good Die Young Come with now to see your fallen son, grandmother with heart, your father that tore it all apart They wait for us now, there in the sun. Best believe baby That The Good Die Young
