Angel of Death
What happened to the days
When time wasn't so fast?
We look toward the future
While forgetting our past
And as we grow older
Time really does fly
We just close our eyes
And life passes us by
The days seem like minutes
It's here, then it's gone
The nights go by quickly
Not lasting as long
The moment we're born
Our body starts to die
Thinking life's forever
But believing a lie
Death has no boundaries
It comes to us all
Time just stands by
And watches us fall
The Angel of Death
Watches us sleep
Ever so patient
Until time to reap
