(Death whispers softly, life's deceiver,)
(For both the clever and the believer.)
It's lurking near, no need to strive,
The only truth for the dead and alive.
Today you breathe, tomorrow choke,
The heart stops cold, the final stroke.
Fates entwine, the threads unwind,
From poison's sip to death confined.
A bite of food, a single slip,
The slow descent, the fatal grip.
Forever and ever and ever and ever,
Will just feel like never and ever and ever and ever.
Try whatever and ever and ever and ever.
But your mind will sever however forever and ever.
You're running scared, the end's ahead,
It finds you sleeping in your bed.
Lightning strikes, a car collides,
The silent killer sneaks inside.
From a step too far or breath too deep,
Or nightmares where you fall asleep.
Forever and ever and ever and ever,
Will just feel like never and ever and ever and ever.
Try whatever and ever and ever and ever.
But your mind will sever however forever and ever.
Five hundred days and five thousand ways,
From gunfire to the slow decays.
Two seconds flat, a blink too late,
Caught by the whims of fickle fate.
A sip of water, a twist of air,
Caught unaware in the snare of despair. (of despair)
Forever and ever and ever and ever,
Will just feel like never and ever and ever and ever.
Try whatever and ever and ever and ever.
But your mind will sever however forever and ever.
Death's always near, a constant friend,
It circles close, it will not bend.
Through every breath, it stalks the night,
A promise made with every light.
See it coming, through my eyes,
Your fate's foretold, there's no disguise.
I see the moment, the final glance,
Every stumble, every chance.
Forever and ever and ever and ever, (and ever and ever)
Will just feel like never and ever and ever (and ever and ever)
Try whatever and ever and ever and ever. (and ever and ever)
But your mind will sever however forever (and ever and ever)
Lock your fate, adjust the time,
Walk the line, avoid the climb.
Every step, a ticking clock,
Every beat, a solid block.
No escape, no grand design,
Just a path that twists and twines.
Forever and ever and ever and ever,
Will just feel like never and ever and ever and ever.
Try whatever and ever and ever and ever.
But your mind will sever however forever and ever.
And ever and ever and ever and ever.
And ever and ever and ever and ever.
And ever and ever and ever and ever.
And ever.
And ever.
And ever.
