lyrics
Sing "Halleluja, I'm still alive,"
Only twenty-two, but I'm ready to die,
And if the worst comes true, don't let me tombstone lie,
Say, "He had a good run."
Trust can be broken, tested and tried,
When people we love turn into people who lie,
But I'm proof to me folks that their lessons survived,
Say, "He was a good son."
And if ever there was a place for me,
It's on this bench and it's at these keys,
Playing to friends until their pain is eased,
Because they are the best ones.
Live as though the Earth stopped turning,
Because in the end it's what you've given out that makes it count,
If my tomorrow doesn't come,
It's only hearts that I have won that will keep me singing out when I'm in the ground.
Sing "Halleluja, I'm still alive,"
Only twenty-two, but I'm ready to die,
And if the worst comes true, don't let me tombstone lie,
Say, "He was a good son,
His friends were the best ones,
He had a good run."
