The Reaper
I'm staring death in his eyes
I watch the world cave in
Drained like the color from my skin
Is this real is this really happening?
I used to sing his praise
But now there's no sweetness in his name
He's been dying to show me to my grave
Now what I see
And what I dream
They don't align
Now face to face
My mistakes come to life
I feel the floor give way
Nothing but he and I remain
And I see the expression on him change
He leaves my wrists untied
Offers his hand and he tells me to decide
Now I'm begging him let me keep my wasted life
Please it's not my time
Now what I see
And what I dream
They don't align
Now face to face
My mistakes come to life
Now what I see
And what I dream
They don't align
Now face to face
My mistakes come to life
Now what I see
And what I dream
They don't align
Now face to face
My mistakes come to life
I watch the world cave in
Drained like the color from my skin
Is this real is this really happening?
I used to sing his praise
But now there's no sweetness in his name
He's been dying to show me to my grave
Now what I see
And what I dream
They don't align
Now face to face
My mistakes come to life
I feel the floor give way
Nothing but he and I remain
And I see the expression on him change
He leaves my wrists untied
Offers his hand and he tells me to decide
Now I'm begging him let me keep my wasted life
Please it's not my time
Now what I see
And what I dream
They don't align
Now face to face
My mistakes come to life
Now what I see
And what I dream
They don't align
Now face to face
My mistakes come to life
Now what I see
And what I dream
They don't align
Now face to face
My mistakes come to life
