lyrics

Hey, Death
You ain't so bad
Some say you're kinda scary, but you got a bad rap
Hey, Death
You've got a job to do
Clearing out a few to make a space for the new
Hey, Death
We're gonna meet some day
I need to come clean, I'm not the type to pray
Hey, Death
I'm intrigued to see
What the hell is gonna happen to a sinner like me

Hey, Death

Hey, Death
Can we be friends
Don't beat about the bush, we both know how this ends
Hey, Death
Don't misunderstand
Don't wanna meet you soon, don't wanna know your plan
Hey, Death
When it's time to go
Can you make it quick, don't wanna take it slow
Hey, Death
I may be wrong
But I think the worst is hanging on while wishing you were gone

Hey, Death
Hey, Death (Hey, Death - Hey, Death)
Hey, Death
Whatcha say?

We are dust
We are sand
Falling through
Your boney hand
We can push
We can strive
But the truth is
Nobody's getting out of here alive
Nobody's getting out of here alive

Hey, Death
You're a part of life
As natural as breathing, but as sharp as a knife
Hey, Death
We shouldn't be afraid
You're the end of pain and worry, all our debts are paid
Hey, Death
Is it time to go?
The curtain's coming down at the end of the show
Hey, Death
I'll embrace you now
You take my breath away as I take my final bow

Hey, Death
Hey, Death (Hey, Death - Hey, Death)
Hey, Death (Hey, Death - Hey, Death)

Hey, Death (Hey, Death - Hey, Death)
Hey, Death (Hey, Death - Hey, Death)
Hey, Death (Hey, Death - Hey, Death)
Hey, Death
Nobody's getting out of here alive
