Death
is that knocking I hear? is that knocking I hear ? oh hello ,Ancient one - wispered ear to ear. U are the bitter truth after the beautiful lie; U are the bitter truth after the beautiful lie; I have a question for you , have you ever cried? u strike the sorrow and grief in the ticker of us; u strike the sorrow and grief in the ticker of us; U coldly make people into bare dust. U look at ur victim's face without fire; U look at ur victim's face without fire; what do u see? A flame burning ,just higher? You were the first to come, the last to go; A silent witness to all we know. Older than gods , the ancient know; Yet younger than the tears that flow. A veiled sentinel of life's play; played both in night and--day. mists of twilight and smell of blood; the candle falls with a loud thud. the graves hum a eerie song; knock knock plays like the heart's gong. Splitting the silence of death's song; Forever here? or just gone? You roam the earth around the clock ; counting a person's time like tic- tok. Through cradle's song to coffin's knock; You never pause, you never stop. your steps so silent , the living cant hear; Yet all dance at your melody with eyes of tear.
