Death Be Thy Name

When you're least expecting my call

Or at the end, life descends, olden age you fall

Just remember I'm a promised fact

There's no way around fate, no secret pact

Many through the ages they have tried

Believe me that I know, they all failed and died

Death be thy name, death be thy name

Death be thy name, death be thy name

Searching for an ancient tale or myth

Read it on a book or heard it from the wind

Takes you to the edges of the earth

Even try to steal it from the newly breathed

But your efforts are a waste of time

You can't hide forever, you'll still be mine

Aarghh, I'm coming to get you

Now the scientist misunderstood

Can't make immortality inside a test tube

I don't know if I should laugh or cry

Take it as an insult or credit you're trying

But for now the old saying holds fast

He who laughs the longest

Is he who laughs last
