Death came to me two days ago,
I said i wasn't ready to go,
Death said fine, i'll give you more time
I said nothing and watched my one way ticket leave

Death left me here
and took another in my place.
Now, death said.
She said, okay, i've fought long enough.

She left us here,
to mourn her passage
but she left us a reminder
that life is what we make of it.

Death came and took
someone i loved, someone i knew
Death came and she didn't look back
She knew we would cry, but she knew we could handle
