Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey now
When it's time to die
The world won't cry
It's the end of youth
[Verse 2]
Only God knows when the beast is feeding
Taking from our mouths when we ain't eating
Only God knows
Only God knows
[Verse 3]
Shedding more blood than we are bleeding
Shedding more blood than we are bleeding
Only God knows when the beast is eating
Taking from our mouths when we ain't eating
Shedding more blood than we are bleeding
Only God knows (Anything I do)
Only God knows (Anything I do)
Only God knows (Anything I do)
[Verse 4]
God knows things we believe in
God knows it's time for the peace and
God knows kids in the street
With their eyes on the leaders
(Anything I do)
Only God knows, only only God knows (Anything I do)
Only God knows, only God knows (Anything I do)
[Verse 5]
Only God knows where your wife is sleeping
Only God knows what the preacher's preaching
Only God knows that the people are cheating
Only God knows, you don't need him
Only God knows
(Anything I do)
Only God knows (Anything I do)
Only God knows (Anything I do)
Only God knows (Anything I do)
Only God knows (Anything I do)
Only God knows
Only, only God knows
Only God knows, only God knows
[Verse 6]
Cheating, begging, and stealing
Costs than more I can afford
Breathing, love, and eating
Reasons to go overboard
[Verse 7]
Anything I do, anything I do
Anything I do (Anything I do)
Anything I do
[Verse 8]
I know the life that I'm leading
I know the lies and the reasons
I know it's going down in this evening
But only God knows the time that I'm leaving
[Verse 9]
Anything I do, anything I do
Anything I do, anything I do
Anything I do, anything I do
Anything I do, anything I do
Anything I do, anything I do
Anything I do, anything I do
Anything I do, anything I do
[Verse 10]
Say goodbye
By ending life
It's the end of this youth
