Only The Good

It should've been me tonight
To make the jump, to face the light
It should've been me that let go
But it wasn't so

It should've been me that died
To take the trip, to the other side
I should've faced the dark that came
The end of my game

It should've been me to pass
To, without reason, breathe my last
I don't know if shes facing hell
There's no way to tell

It should've been me to die
Over my ashes, no-one would cry
But only the good die young, they say
Proven true today
