Death

I am tired
My heart stop beating
This game of life
Doesn't seem fun anymore

My eyes are weary
My pupils are closing
Silence is all around
The death angel stands at the door

He's calling I am trembling
My bones are crumbling
I am cracking
He's chuckling

The audience is waving
Children baling
Parents sobbing
Love ones nodding

The candle is lit
The light is off
The end is at hand
