Death, come here!
Sit, let's haggle prices.
We all owe you a debt
We can't pay unless we're banished from earth.
But why do you take us when we are yet grown?
Waiting to reap what we've sown.
Grim reaper!
You harvest souls blindly
Leaving hollows in our minds
You take the beautiful and kind
Leaving less of their kind.
I say let's reach a bargain
You say "this life no balance"
Greedy thief!
A time shall come,
When we shall sing,
O death! Where is that sting?
O grave! Where is thy victory?
