Only the good die young

I never got that saying but you can say they die unexpectedly

If I'm referencing a Billy Joel song , I can't be that young lol.
I'm 44. I consider myself old because I can't believe I'm still here.but not other people.

Yes, but the saying is centuries older than the Billy Joel song.

Yall heard it, everybody who is old and alive, you are all bad and that's why you didn't die young because only the good ones do. Makes zero sense if you look at the reality.

It just means that if you're older you've had more opportunities to do bad things.
