Death is Always Near
On the day we are born, we all begin to die.
For some the road is long, for some the blink of an eye.
The path we chose will lead us in many different ways.
No one truly knows the number of our days.
Death is always near
We can't escape his grasp.
Not something we must fear
Life was not meant to last.
Death is alway near
And in due time it will arrive.
We should not run to meet him
Although we won't survive.
The ones that went before me, are living in my heart.
The ones that will come after, will need a place to start.
The ways of my people, must go on and on.
All this will continue, long after I am gone.
Death is always near
We can't escape his grasp.
Not something we must fear
Life was not meant to last.
Death is alway near
And in due time it will arrive.
We should not run to meet him
Although we won't survive.
And when my days are over, and Death I now must face.
I will will feel no sorrow, but rest peacefully in my place.
At last I'll be united, with those that are so dear.
As I cross the bridge, I have no need to fear.
Death is always near
We can't escape his grasp.
Not something we must fear
Life was not meant to last.
Death is alway near
And in due time it will arrive.
We should not run to meet him
Although we won't survive.
