The word itself scares,
the word itself reminds you of mourning.
The cold hands that reach out and grab you,
the cold hands that take you from reality,
and bring you to a place where you mind is at ease,
All your memories,
All your sacrifices,
All you deeds,
They count now.
Death scares people,
It makes them want to run away from it,
Escaping it is our greatest challenge,
But think about it like this:
You get what you get,
you can not run from it no matter what,
You will go to a better place
Where all your problems float away
And all your good deeds count.
Death it is not scary,
It is just the beginning.
