Heroes Die

Verse 1 What happens when the world grows cold And I’m already growing old What happens when my father dies And I finally see through all his lies

When I try to do a little good They still treat me like they always would When the black knight rides his tired steed Just to see if the white knight bleeds

Pre-Chorus Why should I be the one to lie When I’m already dead inside

Chorus They say the good die young The noble never did exist It’s always someone else to blame Just shake your head and clench your fist

Verse 2 What happens when the world grows cold And I'm already to old Do your children pay the toll And then you ask me why Like you never watched the heroes die

They never let them learn to fly They never even let them try Then you cry

Even though you’re the poison You still blame the wine They could have made it all turn out fine

Pre-Chorus 2 You call it fate, you call it time You pour the poison, blame the wine

Chorus They say the good die young The noble never did exist It’s always someone else to blame Just shake your head and clench your fist

What happens when the world grows cold And I’m already too old

Bridge I’m not angry, I’m just tired Of watching everything decay I’m not broken, I’m just empty And running out of things to say

Final Chorus They say the good die young The noble never did exist It’s always someone else to blame Just shake your head and clench your fist

What happens when the world grows cold And I’m already too old

Outro When the world grows cold And I’m already too old
