lyrics

On a beautiful
Day of spring
I was walking
Through the green

The sun was out
My mind content
Then out of the blue
My life would end

Up on the trail
Behind a pine
He stood and said:
"Your life is mine"

He was of great stature
He wielded an axe
He was quick
With his attacks

He took a swing
He hit my skull
And his axe
Wasn't dull

My blood was flowing
Like a fountain
He dragged my body
Up on the mountain

He proceeded to dig
To dig my grave
He said:
"Son, you were brave"

Then he said:
"You begged, at your last breath
But for too long, you've begged for death"

"Don't cry wolf son
It's over now
If you ever wondered
Why and how"

"Sometimes irony
Can kill you first
Before the plague
Or death by thirst"

"Anyways son
You ain't dead
This is a nightmare
You're in your bed"

"What felt like blood
Is your sweat
And what was sleep
You thought was death"

"But son
My advice for you
Stop praying for death
Or death will come
It's true"
