lyrics

Things are as good as you can possibly expect.
But you keep finding being tough don’t get respect.
Weakness never comes from caring
‘Cause a loving heart is far more daring.

When you greet the day with your hand on your gun
You will quickly find you’re not the only one.
If you come looking for a fight,
Then that fight is gonna come.
You’d been better off looking for love.

If it’s good day to die, it’s a better day to live.
When you’re doing it right, there is so much more to give.
Being ready to say goodbye is really only half of it.
If it’s a good day to die, it’s a better day to live.

Now I’m not saying its not a hard run
and its very clear you are a smart one.
Nobody’s ever doubting all the trials that come your way,
But how much of its unnecessary pain?

If you can greet the world with your arms opened wide,
Take the good and bad and brave the by-and-by,
When everyone gets crazy, you won’t have to wonder why
You just look them in the eye
And tell them all that hey…

It may be a good day to die, but it’s a better day to live.
When you’re doing it right, there is so much more to give.
Being ready to say goodbye is only half of it.
If it’s a good day to die, it’s a better day to live.
I bet it’s a good day to die, but a better day to live.

If it’s good day to die, it’s a better day to live.
When you’re doing it right, there is so much more to give.
Being ready to say goodbye is really only half of it.
If it’s a good day to die, it’s a better day to live.
