If I died young would you remember me better
They only want your youth for pleasure
I'm going home for the summer
Don't hold me down I'm wild and Southern
Yeah, my heart is a prison for you
I'm number one
I'm black and blue
Dying young
Put your head in your hands
Look what you've done
Nobody cares
A natural beauty, a fallen angel
I turned 19 on the sixth of April
I'm all alone when the party's over
And my past self is lying in the gutter
Yeah, my heart is a prison for you
I'm number one
I'm black and blue
Dying young
Put your head in your hands
Look what you've done
Nobody cares
When you hear my name I hope you cry
I-I live on in every song I write
I-I
Yeah, my heart is a prison for you
I'm number one
I'm black and blue
Dying young
Put your head in your hands
Look what you've done
Nobody cares
