Mr. Death
Defying Destiny: A Conversation with Mr. Death
Lyrics
Hey Mr. Death, where you going
Addressing Death, questioning its destination
Have you found your victim yet
Asking if Death has chosen its next victim
Am I safe inside tonight
Questioning personal safety indoors
Can I turn out all the lights
Considering turning off the lights for safety
Are you waiting at my door, Mr. Death
Wondering if Death is lurking outside the door
Go away, go away, go away
Repeatedly urging Death to leave
Come back tomorrow
Asking Death to return another day
I know I won't be here
Expressing the knowledge of absence upon Death's return
And I don't want to go
Reluctance to face Death
Although the end is near
Despite knowing the end is near, not ready to go
Don't want to know your face
Refusal to recognize Death personally
Or speak your name
Unwillingness to utter Death's name
And when tomorrow comes
Anticipation of another day
I want to know that I'm still the same
Desire to remain unchanged despite circumstances
So Mr. Death are you leaving
Inquiring if Death is departing due to absence
Now that I am not at home
Asking if Death will return in the future
Will you come another day
Speculating on potential consequences of Death's return
Will there be a price to pay
Questioning if there will be a cost for evading Death
Are you waiting at my door, Mr. Death
Concern about Death's presence at the doorstep
Go away, go away, go away
Repeatedly urging Death to leave
Come back tomorrow
Requesting Death's return on another day
I know I won't be here
Acknowledging absence during Death's return
And I don't want to go
Reluctance to face Death
Although the end is near
Despite knowing the end is near, not ready to go
Don't want to know your face
Refusal to recognize Death personally
Or speak your name
Unwillingness to utter Death's name
And when tomorrow comes
Anticipation of another day
I want to know that I'm still the same
Desire to remain unchanged despite circumstances
Mr. Death, can we talk for a while
Seeking a conversation with Death to delay departure
Cause I really don't want to go
Reluctance to face Death
So much I like to do in my life
Expressing desires and unfulfilled plans in life
So many things I want to know
Enumerating the numerous things one wants to experience
Come back tomorrow
Requesting Death's return on another day
I know I won't be here
Acknowledging absence during Death's return
And I don't want to go
Reluctance to face Death
Although the end is near
Despite knowing the end is near, not ready to go
Come back tomorrow
Requesting Death's return on another day
I know I won't be here
Acknowledging absence during Death's return
And I don't want to go
Reluctance to face Death
Although the end is near
Despite knowing the end is near, not ready to go
Don't want to know your face
Refusal to recognize Death personally
Or speak your name
Unwillingness to utter Death's name
And when tomorrow comes
Anticipation of another day
I want to know I'm still the same
Desire to remain unchanged despite circumstances
Go away, go away, go away
Go away, go away, go away
-Go away, go away, go away
-Go away, go away, go away
