Hello Death

[Verse 1] She said mother I've been as wicked as the rest But you promised me I'd die looking my best I'm too weak now to say sorry for what I said Oh mother, I've been as wicked as the rest [Chorus] Hello, death You've come again My oldest friend [Verse 2] Carry my body through the traffic to the church Sing for me the songs I never heard Take my limbs and bury them in this earth Sing for me to lift me from this curse [Chorus] Hello, death You've come again My oldest friend [Bridge] By the river, by the church I saw a ghost I recognized And he asked me what it's worth To live another life And I told him what I'd seen Another world through his eyes A fool in disguise, a fool in disguise [Chorus Variation] Hello, death Hello, death You've come again My oldest friend
