When Death Comes

Many have tried to escape Think they can get away But there are things you can't outrun They've tried to bend or break her Think they can fight her off She's taken each and every one At any moment she could Strike you down today At any moment she could Take your breath away Yet still you breathe When death comes She don't ask no questions She just puts your soul on through And you may feel inclined to ask some But what would answers do? Oh, you could try to beg a ransom Oh, but you know you'd look a fool So when death comes And oh, she's comin' Don't run Just face the truth Some nights I've longed for her embrace Mmmm mm mm That sweet sweet vacant release And the silence that follows Now, while I crave the hush I keep holding on, there ain't no rush Cuz, she's coming for me no matter what I do At any moment she could Strike me down today At any moment she could Take my breath away Yet still I breathe When death comes She don't ask no questions She just puts your soul on through And you may feel inclined to ask some But what would answers do? Oh, you could try to beg a ransom Oh, but you know you'd look a fool So when death comes And oh, she's comin' Don't run Just face the truth
