You think you're safe
(When you're living in your simple fishbowl life)
But I'm closer
(I am closer than you think)
I, the keeper of your time
Or what is left of it
I've counted your every second
Since you first entered this world
I like to sit beside you (Sit beside you)
(And) Listen to your heart and thoughts
You always think so much
Yet you do so very little (You do nothing)
You believe you are the one that I have forgotten (I have not)
I know you and I will never leave you
Why do you always wait until it's too late? (Too late)
You want to know why I am here
And where I'm taking you (My own death)
I observe how well you spend your limited seconds of life
And I'm afraid to say that you don't really use them well
You misuse loved ones, but once you stop breathing
You all go back to the same thought
And it makes you heavy to carry (to carry)
You believe you are the one that I have forgotten (I have not)
I know you and I will never leave you
Why do you always wait until it's too late? (Too late)
You want to know why I am here
And where I'm taking you (My own death)
My own death
I hope they know how much I cared about them
It's my own death
How much I cared in the court of my heart
My own death
And you dare to say that I'm the mystical one?
It's my own death
When it's you that always waits until it's too late
You believe you are the one that I have forgotten (I have not)
I know you and I will never leave you
Why do you always wait until it's too late? (Too late)
You want to know why I am here
And where I'm taking you (My own death)
You think you are safe (But I'm closer than you think)
You think you are safe (In your "own" life)
