Death, Why Do You Always Come So Suddenly?

Death, why do you always come suddenly?
The only thing dependable about you is that you come,
The inevitable one.

I finally know why you're called a reaper,
'Cause you've stolen a life,
Something precious.

Reaper!
Give me back joy,
You've taken too much from me
And you're not done yet.

Aunt, Uncle, Distant Friend,
You've taken them under
and my days got colder.

Why do you enjoy taking my family,
tearing holes in my heart,
and leaving me empty?

Death, you're a thief,
And I want them back.
You've taken my innocent heart
and made me cynical.

I don't understand you,
And I really don't care.
I'm afraid if I understood you,
I'd find you right here.

Empty eyes,
Grinning teeth,
Hood of Black
Reaper.

Death you came suddenly,
but night does not last,
The morning is coming,
And hope comes fast.
