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
