Death consumes all
At one's last breath
come to terms with Death
Unready to find
what chains will bind
your flesh with
forged by his smith
He will drag you down by the chain
and leave you in eternal pain
in the darkness of his lair
listen to both foul and fair
suffering like mares
torn apart by bears
His lair is filled with spears
and stakes and salty tears
of his long-forgotten souls
who are soon about to know
how horrible it feels
to live without meals
They do not need food
however, it depends on Death's mood.
If he is forgiving he will save
them from an untimely grave
However if he is not
all that is left is to rot
Death's door is thick and wide
to accomodate all those who ride
by Death's fair rules
even he who mewls
follow Death's path
into his wrath
Death's throne
creaks and groans
of tortured people
who never live to see the steeple
of a church
(this part will make you lurch)
Death's icy hand
freezes every land
with his cold clacking jaw
still stinking of old meat raw
he whispers to sleep
those who he reaps
Death consumes all
there is nothing we can do but bawl
when a relative is taken
he will not be forsaken
for Death consumes all
no matter big or small
