Reaper

Oh!behold the invisible hand as it creeps quietly into every soul And leaves a trademark of noise and silence An echo of wail that quivers into every bone marrow A tale of fear that has been long foretold Those that told the tale never witnessed its fold And so all of us would likewise end untold Strong hands that have paved the way for fresh blood And has dried away old folks Like a thief in the night he comes in his old robe Alone he rides bringing no one along except his own soul He his happy to see his friend SOUL Smiles at him but SOUL’S bright face turns cold He then walks him through a boulevard of darkness till he reaches his abode Sent by the Lord of the Heavens and the Lords of the Earth Such faithful servant as him has never been yet Brave as the lion and but the lion saw him and it's heart melt An old man painted in black but made from light His presence welcomes emptiness and peaceful flight A succor to everyone , what a painful delight Oh Lord!, Oh Lord! His works we pray you do stop His power we pray you do mock Men use him against men Gods use him among men And yet he is still avoided The master of dark arts taking hearts,I beseech your kindness unto me May you go far and never come again Let me please my head in peace And be long gone till I rest in peace
