In the stillness of the night I feel its cold embrace
Death waits patiently its presence I can't erase
Whispers in the shadows a silent tolling bell
A specter in the darkness waiting for my soul to dwell
Death is waiting at the edge of my bed
Its icy fingers reaching for what lies ahead
In the twilight hour where dreams unfold
I feel its presence as my story's told
In the echoes of my fears I hear its mournful call
A reminder of my mortality standing tall
Every breath I take brings me closer to its grasp
A dance with destiny in this eternal gasp
Death is waiting at the edge of my bed
Its icy fingers reaching for what lies ahead
In the twilight hour where dreams unfold
I feel its presence as my story's told
But I won't cower in the face of its might
For life's a journey a relentless fight
I'll embrace the unknown with courage in my heart
Facing death's shadow I'll play my part
Death is waiting at the edge of my bed
Its icy fingers reaching for what lies ahead
In the twilight hour where dreams unfold
I feel its presence as my story's told
