I Don't Want You To Die
Don't be so glum, honey
Sad as you can ever be
Who am I to care for you
When I'm just as lost too
I can't change your point of view
Or change your mind
You're willing to go anytime
Up the stairway to paradise
Said you've lived your life to the fullest
Like you had it all
You're not afraid to die
I will be there even if you don't care
It would be such a sad sight
I could tell you that you are right
But I won't
I don't want you to die
Dream wild, live fast, young and free
Bold of you to greet death at 23
Who am I to rescue you
I'm not a savior but a fool
To tell you what you shouldn't do
Or ask you why
You're willing to go anytime
Up the stairway to paradise
Said you've lived your life to the fullest
Like you had it all
You're not afraid to die
I will be there even if you don't care
It would be such a sad sight
I could tell you that you are right
But I won't
I don't want you to die
My heart breaks for Jim, Jimi, and Janis
I hope your name won't be on the list
My heart breaks for Kurt, darling Amy, and Brian
They say all the hurt would vanish when you're dying
My heart breaks for you, I want you to listen
Death doesn't come with a warning sign or siren
But you can almost taste heaven
So you don't even mind it at all
You're willing to go anytime
Up the stairway to paradise
Said you've lived your life to the fullest
Like you had it all
You're not afraid to die
I will be there even if you don't care
It would be such a sad sight
I don't wanna believe you're right
Cause you're not
I don't want you to die
