I'll walk down the road of eternity My partner hand-in-hand beside me I'll ask of his name And he replies "Death" to me And we continue our merry gait
As we walk slowly, I ask where he's from He replies, "Where they all go when their time is done" And though I know not who they are To listen is fun As we travel afar
Death looks at me As he smiles quietly He murmurs a inquiry Asks if I had a reply As to why walked with me . Confused I replied Something of friendship Death chuckled and shoved me down Fear bloomed in my belly For Death's feet did not touch the ground
It was only then I knew my friend Was truly the master Of when one's time ends
And in fear I stopped And Death smiled at me And before I could turn back He closed the door to reality
