I wasn't content with life that day
I wanted to run away right then
But then something came, so unexpected
Something I never thought could happen
The reaper came to get me that night
But I wasn't prepared, not ready
I didn't want to go with him
He made me so damn unsteady
He wrapped his cold hand around my wrist
I felt the claw of the beast
He stole away my heart, my soul
But not my mind, at least
I heard the devil's song in my head
And knew I had to get away
I saw it from a different point of view
And watched my body decay
My mind lost touch with reality
And slowly I began to fall out of sane
I wandered so dark and so alone
And then I started to feel the pain
Life was tormenting, but not like this
By myself, I was so sad
Not bloodied, not scarred, but I felt the wound
I never thought death would be this bad
My body rotted, day by day
Until finally nothing was left
I watched forever, till the end of time
The devil was cunning, skillful and deft
This was my Hell, my eternal rest
But rest I did not at all
I saw the devil himself one day
And that is all I recall
Death had finally made it's mark
I faded away into the dark
