Glee Cast - If I Die Young Lyrics
[Santana:]
If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
Lord make me a rainbow
I'll shine down on my mother
She'll know I'm safe with you when
She stands under my colors, oh and
Life ain't always what you think it oughta be, no
Ain't even grey, but she buries her baby
The sharp knife of a short life,
Well, I've had just enough time
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
The sharp knife of a short life,
Well I've had just enough time
And I'll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger
I've never known the lovin' of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
There's a boy here in town says he'll love me forever
Who would have thought forever could be severed by
[Santana with New Directions:]
The sharp knife of a short life,
[Santana:]
Well I've had just enough ([Santana with New Directions:] time)
Ooh yeah
Ooh whoa
So put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls
What I never did is done
A penny for my thoughts
Oh no, I'll sell them for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singin'
Funny when you're dead how people start listenin'
If I die young
[Santana with New Directions:]
Bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
[Santana (New Directions):]
Uh oh (uh oh)
The ballad of a dove (uh oh)
Go with peace and love
[Santana with New Directions:]
Gather up your tears
[Santana:]
Keep 'em in your pocket
Save 'em for a time when you're really gonna need 'em, oh
[Santana with New Directions:]
The sharp knife of a short life
[Santana:]
Well I've had just enough ([Santana with New Directions:] time)
So put on your best boys
And I'll wear my pearls

When she sings about Finn and the fact that she slapped him
i remember when my mum told me about cory i cried all day i couldn’t believe it i miss you so so much 😭
who is here 2020---- 2025
this still breaks my heart
rest in peace finn
Wonderful 😍💖
One thing I never really understood about this scene is why Blaine is sat right at the back, and not next to Kurt. Surely he would be comforting his fiancé, who had just lost his step-brother, right?
Love santana
I don’t think someone has ever shown more real emotion in acting and you can see everyone siting in that room knows it too. ❤️
I can't believe that most of the people think Santana's reaction wasn't planned, when they're just acting...
the crying and breaking down was scripted but when naya ran away screaming she wasn’t acting anymore. that’s why only matthew and harry got up to comfort her because they knew it wasn’t apart of the scene. this scene was obviously so raw and emotional that it felt necessary to leave it in for the tribute episode.
@abby xox Yeah... The emotions are real i guess, but no one can know what is real.
It's so heartbreaking to know that that wasn't scripted. Naya actually broke down, it wasn't fake.😢
i wonder how much of this was scripted, cuz when she started tearing up, even Mike chang(Harry) looked shocked and when she broke down he went up to her with mr. Shue
The script had Santana/Naya breaking down at the end of the song, but obviously she couldn't do it. Very bittersweet, especially considering the cast who went up to comfort her were/are her friends :(
This episode was the hardest episode to watch. It’s was very emotional and so was I. Seeing everyone crying made me cry my heart out with them. I’m not a very emotional person but this episode and the break up episode was really painful. Anyway Santana and Naya Rivera sounded amazing and very beautiful.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I was crying then when she had a meltdown I was balling and it was a flood in my house
02:42 "Shame is a wasted emotion"- You only get one life, live it!
This performance really hit everyone. Theres a reason it almost has 30 million views
mike and mr shue werent actually meant to get up and comfort her as that wasnt scripted and it was kept in
imagine artie got up to comfort her lmao
If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
Uh oh uh oh
Lord make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother
She'll know I'm safe with you when
She stands under my colours, oh and
Life ain't always what you think it oughta be, no
Ain't even grey, but she buries her baby
The sharp knife of a short life,
Well, I've had just enough time
If I die young bury me in satin.
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
The sharp knife of a short life,
Well I've had just enough time
And I'll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger
I've never known the lovin' of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
There's a boy here in town says he'll love me forever
Who would have thought forever could be severed by
The sharp knife of a short life,

Save 'em for a time when your really gonna need 'em oh
The sharp knife of a short life,
Well I've had just enough time
So put on your best boys, and I'll wear my pearls
love mike
This scene *killed* me
Good impression of the Band Perry.🤗🤗🤗🤗
hi im a big fan her sing is good my wish is to sing with glee i love them but i carn't my famley is poor and im ill plees mack my dream true it make me happy
I seriously think she had one of the best voices on glee, sucks she didn’t sing more:(
This song makes me cry every time I hear it
Corey monteith and Cameron boyce both died too soon
This hit me hard, but Will's scene at the end of the episode is what really broke me.
It's a bit odd how this scene has 30M views but the other one only 300k.
The scene always brings out the waterworks. :/ R.I.P. Corey
I know there were other characters closer to finn in the show, I felt like Santana was so much more broken and emotional(in my opinion) because of his death, and this scene was an example, watching this made me start sobbing cuz it's like I felt all of her emotions. Even everyone else was surprised that she broke down
god this kills me
This song broke me when I watch the Quarterback. Such an emotional episode for them all
Auto tune is real but perfect and tears
This made me cry, I’ve never cried at glee but I love Santana (naya Rivera) I’ve watched glee hundreds of times just for her 🥰🥺🏳️🌈
2020 anyone? No? Just me.
ugh, cheesy, ugh
I don't want to go in a debate about it, all actors lost a friend or more for Lea but I think that in the serie, Rachel wasn't the person who was the most heart broken by his death. Kurt, Puck, Carol, Burt and Santana were more suffering.
Rachel lost the man she loved but she finished by passing To Someone else. Even if she'll always love Finn. But she married and that's something that proove that she could grew up.
Kurt lost a man that was his half-brother. Carol lost her son. Burt lost a guy that he loved like a son. Puck lost his best friend. He knew which pain he causes to him and he lost a guy that he loved like a brother.
And I think that Santana and Finn relationship is also something that nobody Will be able to "replace" cause Finn was the only one who could totally see the true Santana and deal with her two faces. He was the one who was always here for her. Their relationship was inexplicable.
I'm not judging the degre of pain. I'm just looking at what they lost. And I think to the actors who knew Cory and who lost him....
she's good at that song!!!!!!!!!!!!!❤️💞⭐️🥰❤️💞⭐️🥰
R.i.p. kobe. The good die young
The breakdown wasn’t planned and neither was the actors getting up to help her that’s how heartbreaking it is
I actually started watching glee in 2019 so I didnt even know cory was dead I realized that by the way actors sang...
Youtube recommended this video hours after Kobe's Death, like WTF
Very cool girl
She kinda started breaking down at 0:32
When I need a good cry I watch this...
😍😍
I got serious fresh prince of bel air feelings
Anyone what season & episode this was?
season 5 ep 3 "The Quarterback"
I came back here after Noah Puckerman/mark sailing die
😥😥😥😥
I feel like this episode shouldn’t have been scripted, it wasn’t fully, but it was a bit
i wish he was still alive i mean in real life
Its just now that i watch this, and its sooo good. She's so good.
Why do I do this to myself?? Fuck.
2020 and am still crying on the fact that the crying and the break down was real. :( 😭
R.I.P Cory and Finn Your in our Hearts ❤️❤️❤️
When the band stoped
Am i the only one who breaks down bcs of this video?
You can just her how Naya runs down the hall sobbing
the fact that the brake down wasn’t planned and that Naya crying was all real made this so much more heart braking and will and mike getting to going to do if she was okay was real because they thought they would cut the scene but she carried in acting and ran out as she was supposed to 💔🙄
Her and cory are close
😭😭
Still cry every time
This happened to me in November my grandpa died I started screaming and crying 😭 I still am
I'm still crying in 2020.....
still crying the 10th time i see this
I wish we could have seen a scene with Brittany comforting Santana instead of Kurt. I know that wasn't possible since Heather Morris was on maternity leave and about eight months pregnant at the time this episode was filmed, but still, it would have been nice to see Brittany and Santana together here.
Did you know Chris colfer is a book writer 😆😁😊
Ok i've never even seen GLEE but I still cried
I’m still so heartbroken over this
Is it just me or does Santana sing like an angel?
This jus made me cry all over again
This is by far one of the saddest scenes in glee because this was real.
Someone help me this is like the 100th time watching this it’s so sad I can’t help it.
2020 and still grieving, anyone else?
I can never get through this version without crying. It’s not just about Cory at this point but so many others.
2020 and i’m still crying 😭😢
2020, and i'm crying
That first sentence was hilarious I was laughing then she breaks down in crying
And now he’s up there sitting beside Grilled Cheesus😔
3:46 story of my life.... I completely despise crying in front of people, wether it family or friends. I wallow in my own sorrow. No one else needs to carry my weight. Even if the weight isn't mine to begin with. The things we do for love. And how love repays us... Only someone of my mindset will understand what I mean. #cry #alone
Everything about this episode was so raw & real. This scene, in particular, was filled with so much pain & beauty b/c it walked a fine line between Naya & Santa (both of whom were grieving terribly)...
True. I was at my 1st day of camping when I heard of Cory and till today still my heart aches for him and for everyone who has suffered his loss. I deff did. I didn't even enjoy my camping wknd. He was such a good guy who was beaten at life by this cruel world...
This scene broke me when it air on tv I cried so many times
Wow tengo la piel de gallina
2020 and i’m still crying
If I die young reminds me so much of my nan 😔
I love how Kurt came to go see Santana first, because that has a lot of meaning. No matter how many time Santana insulted Kurt, she would ALWAYS stick up for him. It was like Kurt was her buddy, and I feel as if she was inspired by him because he had the courage to come out. I think Kurt though it was his turn.
💔 😭
Anyways iPhone 11 is here
The saddest part is the break down wasn’t scripted 💔😭
it's the saddest thing i've ever seen
When her eyes shift at :32 she knew she wouldn't be able to hold it together.
Look like was the only one to help her in will
I know I already commented but I honestly stop watching at 2:27. I actually start crying hard. 2020 is in 2 days and I honestly still can’t take it.
When she runs away screaming, my heart actually started ripping itself apart.
She was supposed to leaf at the end but Naya couldn't do it so the faces in the background are real
So I'm not afraid to say it - this was Naya Rivera feeling legitimate feelings but also drawing all the attention to herself because that's been her modus operandi for her entire Glee career. I'm not saying she didn't legit feel awful about Corey's death but that performance? I'm mystified by those who are like "it's so real." This was the only moment watching the episode that I was like "oh, that's ACTING" right there while she shrieked and moaned and ran away. It didn't feel REMOTELY genuine to me, compared to the various shots of the kids huddled together, hugging, etc. The more times I watch this, the more I'm convinced she was genuinely grieving but also (intentional or not) making sure she had a DRAMATIC PERFORMANCE. (Meanwhile, Lea, who was his on-screen and ultimately off-screen love, stood there with her "Finn" necklace and sang to the entire room without having to shriek or run away even though she had more reason to than anyone there.)
Finn always cared about Santana. She was his first and he did all he can when her secret was getting spread. He covered for her even when she slapped him. He loved her so much.
RIP CORY MONTEITH♥♥♥♥♥♥6 ans que tu es parti au paradis 😢😢😢😢😢😢tu nous manque beaucoup ,ton sourire ,ta voix ta beauté 💔💔💔💔💔💔
I CRIED SO MUCHHHHHH Santana always seemed like she didn’t care but she was so affected by his death :(
that shit was real that wasn’t acting
i’m on the next ep but i still can’t get over that l- 🥺
like when mike got up to comfort her
