Why Should The Fire Die is an album by the band Nickel Creek, released in 2005. It's the band's third official album, following This Side (released in 2002) and their self titled debut album (released in 2000).

This album is a bit of a jump from their earlier works, in adding more rock.

They also seem to have come into their own vocally, putting more thought into who will sing what and how they will do so. Chris Thile once again takes the lead on most of the songs, but Sara Watkins sings in many songs as well such as Bob Dylan's "Tomorrow is a Long Time", and the song she originally wrote "Anthony". Sean Watkins also gets in on the action singing "Somebody More Like You".
