Time and Death Serve the Same Master
Time And Death Serve The Same Master
Time slowly eats away old people and solid rocks
when heard, comes with hammer and hard knocks
Shadow spirit coming within a dark misty cloud
sparing nobody be they young, old or too proud!
Streams flows from its onward racing unseen head
desperate cries and pleas, food it's gladly fed
Death and Time, ghosts riding the same sad rail
each its own free agent for Heaven and dark Hell
Eternity says that Time over Death is the master
Hope awaits each future,does no good going faster
Man fears both,so often crying sad,desperate pleas
Saddened waters cast upon vast unrelenting seas!
Time slowly eats away old people and solid rocks
when heard, comes with hammer and hard knocks
Shadow spirit coming within a dark misty cloud
sparing nobody be they young, old or too proud!
