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
