Death Grins
Death grins with Pale emotion
My now Stone corpse is floating o'er ocean
arms are stiff and the rest without color
cadaver shows no signs of a sweet rigor mortis
And overhead above the casket
The Reaper is smiling:"YOU'RE DEAD,FANTASTIC!"
It leaves a bitter after taste that will linger
Caressing the body and the unmoved finger
Why would ANY BODY or ANY THING-
cause to laugh at this poor soul
who can no longer sing
Fear?
The audacity in pure Evil?
Many try to hide
The Sickness,humor,and selfish pride
I must ask you,though..
DO NOT go along with Death's charade
Repent your Laughter before this existence fade
God will Forgive any provoking parade
