lirik lagu jack rootes - the good die young
[intro]
“mate, i wouldn’t have left so early if i’d known what would happen to you. maybe if i had been there, things could’ve played out differently. maybe you’d still be with us. maybe your k!ller could’ve gotten some help. maybe, someone else could’ve died in your place. i would’ve given up my life so you’d live. sh-t, it’s just me and flame now. d-mn, you look so peaceful right now. i hope you’re happy on the other side. so this song is for you, we’ll always keep you in our hearts and we’ll never forget you. rest in peace man.”
(and everywhere the broken-hearted
on every lonely avenue
no-one could reach them
no-one but you)
[hook]
one by one
only the good die young
they’re only flyin’ too close to the sun
and life goes-
(x2)
[verse 1 – jack rootes]
won’t act like i’m okay, won’t act like i’m happy
but i will make this track at the risk of sounding sappy
‘cause you had the same p-ssion for music as me and flame
and the fact that you’re now gone is such a d-mn shame
it really feels like centuries since i saw you last
but it was on new year, we both had a blast
but who’ve known that would be the final time
that i’d speak to you before that rather tragic crime
committed by a relative you thought you could trust
who knows the motive. jealousy? rage? blood l-st?
but the one thing about this that makes me more sad
is that you’re like the older brother that i never had
you, me and flame. the three of us were a family
sliced apart by a single blade, such a f-ckin’ tragedy
but we still have that p-ssion, we haven’t forgot this
we’ll achieve our dreams with you in mind, we promise!
[hook]
[verse 2 – slitz]
i could not believe it
roots called me, told me you were leavin’
last time we spoke, we were focused on succeeding
but words cannot describe this pain i am feeling
your p-ssing had everyone’s tears in the ceiling
last words you said were “i’ll see you later”
not knowing you was on your way to meet your creator
talking about chilling, smoking and making music
but this tragedy has everyone confusing
can’t believe a fellow human could do that to you
for every bit of grey sky, there’s a bit of blue
we were all close man, this was so hard to lose
if i ever met god, i would ask why did he choose?
’cause you were a bright person that kept on smiling
now look at this, you have everyone crying
but life goes on, so i hope you keep flying
we will never forget you, we’ll remember when we’re writing!
[hook]
[verse 3 – jack rootes]
once you get to the great kingdom in the sky
tell god that both me and flame said hi
i guess it’s true: the good do die young
all i can hope now is that the afterlife is fun
and if i could change history and alter some lives
i would’ve been me that was k!lled by that knife
but you’re an angel now with no strife or pain
so now that you’re free, spread your wings and fly away
[slitz]
man, it is really hard to say goodbye
at least i know you’re happy along the sky
me and roots, yeah we’re trying not to cry
you’ll always be remembered as a nice guy
i hope your k!ller cries in his sleep
because what he did was beyond deep
now that you’re gone, we’ll let your soul release
do us both a favour, and rest in peace!
[hook]
one by one
only the good die young
they’re only flyin’ too close to the sun
cryin’ for nothing
cryin’ for no-one
no-one but you
