Death Awaits Us All
Embracing Fate: The Grim Tale of Life's Choices
Lyrics
The Reaper's stalkin' me and he's right outside my door
The Reaper is close, outside the speaker's door, symbolizing imminent death.
Tortured screams haunting me, getting too loud to ignore
Tortured screams and regrets are becoming too prominent to ignore.
Mind keeps flashing back to all the wrong I've done in the past
The speaker reflects on past wrongs, haunted by their actions.
Too late for redemption, accept the fate of my ill intentions
It's too late for redemption; the speaker must face the consequences of their ill intentions.
Why are you sending me to hell?
Questioning why they are destined for hell.
I think you already know
Suggesting that the reason for their fate is already known.
Can I have just a little more time?
Pleading for more time before facing death.
You're dead, it's your time to go
Emphasizing that death has arrived, and it's the speaker's time to go.
But I'm much too young to die
Expressing the feeling of being too young to die.
Don't take it personal
Asking not to take the impending death personally.
Death awaits us all
Stating that death is inevitable for everyone.
Hands clutched to my chest, my lips begin to quiver
Describing physical reactions to the approaching death, with hands clutched to the chest.
Thought I'd leave this world with a bang but I went out with a whimper
Contrasting the expectation of leaving the world spectacularly with a quiet exit.
He said
Indicating a dialogue or interaction with death.
Look son, you ain't so tough
Death diminishing the speaker's toughness, revealing a failed attempt to deceive death.
You played your hand, I called your bluff
Acknowledging the speaker's failed bluff in the game of life.
I'll show you what death is like since you think that your life's so rough
Death offering to show the speaker the reality of death.
Why are you sending me to hell?
Reiterating the question of why the speaker is destined for hell.
I think you already know
Suggesting that the reason for their fate is already known by the speaker.
Can I have just a little more time?
Pleading for more time before the inevitable departure.
You're dead, it's your time to go
Stating that death has arrived, and it's the speaker's time to go.
But I'm much too young to die
Expressing the feeling of being too young to face death.
Don't take it personal

Death is coming

For some of you it's closer than you may think
Warning that death is closer than some may realize.
Some of you may be dead before the years out
Some may not survive the year.
Some of you may be dead before the weeks out
Some may not survive the week.
Some of you may be dead before the sun goes down
Some may not survive the day.
Denying it is not gonna' change it
Rejecting denial; acknowledging death won't change.
Nothing can alter the fact that you're going to die
Highlighting the inevitability of death.
