I've known life for many years now And yet she doesn't quite get me She still treats me like some stranger She always messes up all my plans With death on the other hand... ...it's a completely different story She seems to understand me She visits me regularly She always plants a kiss on my cheeks and embraces me warmly But she never takes me with her I beg her... ...she just keeps telling me that it isn't my time yet I hope someday she'll hear my prayers and take me with her to that place of oblivion
