Only The Good Die Young

Iron Maiden

(Harris/Dickinson)



The demon in your mind will rape you in your bed at night

The wisdom of ages, the lies and outrages concealed

Time it waits for no man

My future it is revealed

Time it waits for no man

My fate is sealed



If I cancel tomorrow the undead will thank me today

Fly in the face of your prophets I mock your morality plays

The moon is red and bleeding

The sun is burned and black

The book of life is silent

No turning back



Only the good die young

All the evil seem to live forever

Only the good die young

All the evil seem to live forever

Only the good die young

Only the good die young



Mystery madman a victim of cruel charade

Some innocent pawn in an end game one more stalemate

Is death another birthday?

A way to kiss your dreams goodbye?

Do the undead live within us

And look through our eyes?



Walking on water are miracles all you can trust

Measure your coffin does it measure up to your lust?

So I think I'll leave you

With your bishops and your guilt

So until the next time

Have a good sin



Only the good die young

All the evil seem to live forever

Only the good die young

All the evil seem to live forever

Only the good die young

Only the good die young



Seven deadly sins

Seven ways to win

Seven holy paths to hell



Seven downward slopes

Seven bloodied hopes

Seven are your burning fires

Seven your desires...
