Death Is Not A Friend

Death steals from us all the time Death loves committing crime Death eerily robs us of our friends Sisters, brothers and our dear parents. Death hurts us all the time And obliges us to spend every dime That's saved for tough and rainy days Death continues to terrorize and amaze. Death, we don't like you Back off, stay away from our crew Which is composed of our loved ones Death, stay away from our dance. Death, you're a thief, a trouble maker A liar, an impostor and a deadly killer It's a shame that we must fight you every second Death is a devil who wants to make us all orphaned.
