Prelude To Sorrow

I am the one that answers Death's call,watching and waiting
for strong fronts to fall.

Sooner or later I'll take over your every thought, no matter the
length of time that you faught.

My power over your mind will take over your body as well,
how long this will last you never can tell!

First you will cry and sleep throughout the day, no pill you take
can send me away.

You're falling apart now, man am I good! All that awaits you is the man with the 
hood.

It's not time for that yet though my turn isn't done, I can't let you go now this is just 
getting fun!

All your curtains are drawn you want no company, all you have left is little ole ME!

This is too easy this game that I play, you don't care anymore if it's night or it's day.

Crying and sleeping are all that you do, it won't be long now before
my friend comes for you.

Death is my best friend and Pain is my twin, noone else can see us
we work from within.

I've won this battle my work here now through, I'll move on now to
the ones that mourn you.

Your sleep now eternal I'll move on to another, I found my next victim this time it's 
your mother.

So now my torture will start all over again, there's always another victim you see 
Death's my best friend!!
