Hey
Can't you see, can't you see?
That we're all rushing headlong
Toward our deaths
There's no time
Oh, the minutes change
The seconds change
The months change
The years change
We're all rushing
Ahhhh death is coming to get you
Huh, and I see all the young girls
Tell me, who's gonna carve the lines on their faces
Tell me, who's gonna carve the lines on their faces
Who's gonna change their long hair to stiff, flaxen, grey straw
Death, the lover
Death, the lover
Death, the lover is coming
Come to me forever
And I see all the young men
Whose fate is to know a few nights
Then they're shunned as they grow thick at the waist
Thick at the waist!
Death, the lover
Death, the lover
Death, the lover
Gonna come to me forever
And my teeth
And my teeth
They're all tombstones
They're all tombstones
I'll leave to the pit after you
Death, the lover
Death, the lover
Death, the lover
Come to me forever
Death death death death death death
O, my earthly soul
My mind filled with the darkest thoughts
The cup of life is empty
And the wine just soaks the ground
Like a bird in a hideous trap I'm caught
Ahhh, the pain of childhood wasted
All for nothing!
Hark!
I hear death's footsteps sound louder, come nearer
How much in between me and my master?
Oh, to be alone
With no mind, no body and no need
Just nothing!
Death, the lover
Death, the lover
Come to me forever
Death, the lover
Death, the lover
Death, the lover
Come to me forever
I wanna say that death
Death, the lover's coming
To give me the kiss!
He's coming there, he's going to come to me
That's right
He's real
He's coming
Death, the lover
Death, the lover
Death, the lover
Coming to ffffff- me forever
Death, the lover
Death, the lover
Come to ffffff- me forever
I wish I was a mountain
But I'm a man
And time won't wait for me
