Funeral Hymn

[Verse 1]

Let not the sun go down on my wrath, I let it shake the world

Vengeance is the grudge I bear, flag of reckoning unfurled

You are the architect of your own demise, so smile no more

I am the gatekeeper and you are mine forevermore

[Chorus]

Come greet the reaper, you know the time is nigh

This is the day of reckoning, your time to die

Brave men spin in fear at the sound of my voice

Say goodbye to life so dear, you no longer have a choice

[Verse 2]

Burnt black and silent, rust and blood upon my reaper's blade

I come collect the tolls, gather up all debts unpaid

I call when you least expect but when you deserve it the most

Behold the timekeeper, the end is getting close

[Chorus]

Come greet the reaper, you know the time is nigh

This is the day of reckoning, your time to die

Brave men spin in fear at the sound of my voice

Say goodbye to life so dear, you no longer have a choice

[Bridge]

The dead no longer have

A cross to bear

The dead no longer have

Need to despair

Death has come

And set the snare

Death will come

When you're unaware

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]

The misbegotten have the gall to think them safe and sound

They try to cheat the reaper, scatter, hide, no matter, found

The wheel of life is standing still, for them it turns no more

Now comes the soul keeper and you've become my whore

[Chorus]

Come greet the reaper, you know the time is nigh

This is the day of reckoning, your time to die

Brave men spin in fear at the sound of my voice

Say goodbye to life so dear, you no longer have a choice
