If Death was my best friend, would I go through life unnerving and unafraid? Would I read through the book of my life, feeling no fear to turn each page? I would roam where the unwary stumble across the bones of the lost, fighting for my freedom at any age and at any cost. I would face my enemies and speak the truth, even if knowing it would lead to my demise Flank my adversaries and catch them by surprise! But alas, Death is the friend of no man, He'll grip you in his icy grasp, regardless of dreams or plans, He is no respecter of age, youth or elder Wether you are lost in the storm or already to shelter. But still I shall not be afraid. I shall go through the story of life and not only turn, but rewrite every page For this is my story, for me to rise up and accept my glory, Wether it be fame, shame or neither I'll live my life on my terms, No longer distracted through your intoxicating memory, No longer wishing to breathe you in like ether

Death Is No Friend
If Death was my best friend, would I go through life unnerving and unafraid? Would I read through the book of my life, feeling no fear to turn each page? I would roam where the unwary stumble across the bones of the lost, fighting for my freedom at any age and at any cost. I would face my enemies and speak the truth, even if knowing it would lead to my demise Flank my adversaries and catch them by surprise! But alas, Death is the friend of no man, He'll grip you in his icy grasp, regardless of dreams or plans, He is no respecter of age, youth or elder Wether you are lost in the storm or already to shelter. But still I shall not be afraid. I shall go through the story of life and not only turn, but rewrite every page For this is my story, for me to rise up and accept my glory, Wether it be fame, shame or neither I'll live my life on my terms, No longer distracted through your intoxicating memory, No longer wishing to breathe you in like ether
