A song I wrote a while ago :)

The Reaping

Deep in the forest,

Hidden in the sand,

There stands a strange black-hooded man.

Silent and mean, scythe in hand,

He draws the dream death-dealing hand.

Deep in the forest,

Beneath the moon,

A being lies - beauty defined.

Silent and sweet she cries

This is where my dreams go to die.

Deep in the lands,

Below black skies,

A figure waits to claim his prize.

Your dreams are now dead.

His hunger is being fed.

Here is where the Reaper stays.

Beneath the moon,

Hidden the far away,

Your dreams come to die

In a peaceful way.

It feels like you're giving up,

but really you're just

Growing up.

Deep in the lands,

Below black skies,

A figure waits to claim his prize.

Your dreams are now dead,

His hunger is being fed.

Her is where your Reaper waits.

It's time to give up,

Your body lies cold,

Your soul has been taken,

Bought and sold.

You shouldn't have dreamed so sweet,

For now where they lay

Is dead at your feet.

I'm so sorry

You found out this way,

But it's the Reaper's game

And this is how he plays

He lives in your mind

'Till your end of days

And this is how mankind is played.

Maybe one day

You'll come back again,

With another life

And new soul to spend

Deep in the forest,

Hidden in the sand,

There stands a strange black-hooded man

Silent and mean, scythe in hand,

He draws the dream death-dealing hand.
