Do the Good Die Young?
Only the good die young?
That's open for debate.
Do the great take their place?
For Pete's sake,
I've been face to face
with the pearly gates.
That doesn't make me prodigious.
I'm just stating the obvious.
I think it's fate.
I believe it's a planned escape.
When your work has been carried out,
then soon will come,
your time to be carried out.
Sometimes,
the good die young?
