Death
There Comes A Time We All Must Die
Some Don’t Care, While Others Cry
Death Could Call Your Name Right Now
No One Knows Who, Or When, Or How
It’s Up To Death Which One He Takes
It Could Be You, But That’s The Breaks
Sometimes He Takes Those You Hold Dear
And Other Times He’ll Come Quite Near
To Let You Know, It’s Not Your Turn
It’s Another Day That You Will Burn
Sometimes Death Takes A Real Close Friend
Don’t Stop To Think That This Will End
Death Can’t Be Slowed, And Can’t Be Stopped
He Won’t Give In ‘Til All Have Dropped
And When He’s Done, He Sits And Grins
‘Cuz Don’t Forget, Death Always Wins
But Don’t You Worry, And Don’t You Fret
No, Death Has Not Called Your Name Yet
And If He Does, Then You Will Know
The Time Has Come For You To Go
Death Isn’t Nice, Or Fun. Or Fair
But He’s Around Us, Everywhere
So Live Your Life, And Have Your Fun
Don’t Try To Hide, Or Try To Run
‘Cuz Death Will Find, And Capture You
And When He Does, Then You’ll Be Through
So ‘Til That Time, Just Live Your Life
Don’t Sit And Worry About The Knife
Or Lay Awake, Counting Your Sins
‘Cuz They Don’t Matter, Death Always Wins
Sometimes You’ll Think, Of Giving In
And Start To Think, You Just Can’t Win
Begin To Feel Life’s Not Worth Living
That You’re The Only One Who’s Giving
It’s Times Like These, You’ll Want To Cry
Perhaps Decide, It’s Time To Die
But Stop To Think, About Your Life
About Giving Up, Hey! There’s A Knife!
Now, Think About What You Should Do
About How Many People Care For You
And Realize, There’s Quite A Lot
So Start To See Just What You’ve Got
There’s All Your Friends, And Family
There’s Quite A Few, As You Can See
So Now You Know, You Can’t Give In
When It’s Your Time, Death Will Win
