	Story Behind the Song The song was written on April 8, 1994, the day I learned that Kurt Cobain had killed himself. He was the first performer from my generation to be lost, and I thought of the song "American Pie", about the original "day the music died". For many people, on the day Kurt left, "The Music Died Again" Lyrics "A long, long time ago..." They handed you the crown and tried to make you king But you wouldn't take the throne you couldn't even sing Leader of the scene the needle in the air I bet you could shoot a lot if you could get up there Were they calling out to you? Why couldn't you just see it through? Before the next song could begin, I heard the music die again A rose tried to warn you about your evil ways You heard the cliche "when in Rome"? Your life became a maze No matter what the papers say you weren't the latest fad You just became a legend you just became a Dad Were they calling out to you? Why couldn't you just see it through? Before the next song could begin, I heard the music die again Just when you found a smile you'd throw it in the fire Try now, you could only lose Your life became a pyre You had a foxy lady she took a little piece of your heart shaped box The magic age you reached Were they calling out to you? Why couldn't you just see it through? Before the next song could begin, I heard the music die again Lyrics ©1994,2003 Matthew James Surowiec
