The Reaper's alive and real she follows close to your heel
Observing each step you take and hidden mistakes
She watches your fate with a clock and blade
You're never safe for she's patient and waits
She seen you in the cradle, She saw your deepest fears
She was creeping near when you shed your first tears
The thoughts you think, but others don't hear she sees it all
The phone calls you missed when you were loosing hope
The lies you told your peers and still maintain each year
She sees the meals you missed; The letters wrote
The feelings you hid when you felt alone
She was home watching you try and cope
She patted your back when you let go
She pulled you down when tried to float
She felt pity the first time them knifes kissed each wrist
She listened as you were writing each list
She peered into the future to look at your friends
She saw them with tears in their eyes; "It's too soon for you to die"
They were reminiscing you, and your touch as they cried
She went back to your side saying it wasn't quite time
She was met with the lies in your mind as you stood on a bucket
She seen the rope tied to your neck; She tried to stop that step
But she was late watching you fall into your last breaths
She saw the lingering regret, but their was nothing she could do
Her job is to take, but the Reaper recognizes, there was more to gain
Once again she watched the time stop for a temporary pain
