I can feel the reaper walking next to me
He whispers in my ear "I can set you free"
Trace my veins and watch the blood seeping
Cathartic words hold no real meaning
I can feel the reaper walking next to me
He whispers in my ear "I'll never leave you be"
This shadow hangs above my head stretching out to the horizon
No end in sight seeking the afterlife a brief glimpse of hope at the end of a rope
Death embrace me
I cannot face it
Death embrace me
I cannot face it
Let the sadness sink deep into your head
This life is pointless soon we'll all be fucking dead
So tie my ankles watch me sink to the depths
I'll crack a smile as I take my last breath
Death embrace me
I cannot face it
Death embrace me
I cannot face it
I've been walking hand in hand with death my whole fucking life
A constant battle trying to balance on the edge of a knife
I was never ever gonna see this through
From day one it was only ever me and you
I've been walking hand in hand with death my whole fucking life
A constant battle trying to balance on the edge of a knife
I was never ever gonna see this through
From day one it was only ever me and you
Reaper
I can feel the reaper hanging over me
He's screaming in my ear 'I've finally set you free'
I can feel the reaper hanging over me
He's laughing in my face 'I'll never leave you be'
