My Eyes Close
Tick tock chokes the clock- The seconds fall with each tear; The world stops to stare As I disappear. I scream for heaven’s help; I pray it is not true; But Time is a heartless thief, And Life is cruel. Your love cannot save me now; Death holds me in his arms; He seals his spell with a cold kiss As I fall for his charms. The cold and dark cover me, My heart is hollow, my body stone. Death silently sings me to sleep And my eyes close.
