So Close to Death

by my blue eyes cry   Apr 22, 2006


So close to death I feel the flame

The devils waiting

hes crying my name

Your warm hands rest upon my face

Now I realize my hearts misplaced

I whisper in your ear

dont let my death rest upon your shoulders my dear

Bodies cold but heart grows colder,

So close to death I feel the flame

The devils waiting

hes crying my name

Your warm hands rest upon my face

Now I realize my hearts misplaced

full of fear

when will death appear

I reach up softly to touch your face

My hand moves nowhere its stuck in place

Scorching fires burn not my skin

But hearts ablaze and growing thin

I ask the devil, why hell for me

He answers quietly, youre here to see

My eyes open quickly to see.

Your on your knees,

your praying for me

You grab me tight

Youd been there all night

I love you so much and now I see

What the devil had shown to me

So close to death I felt the flame

The devil showed me,

my loves true name

Your warm hands rest upon my face

Now I know my hearts true place
