B F#
Tonight the reaper moans for me
In the grip of suicide
E
Cold steel rests upon my flesh
F# B
Running red drips from the blade
My time is drawing near
F#
Salvation comes so swiftly
E
Forever to be laid to rest
F#
embrace my past for the dying day
(chorus)
G# /B
Remember me
F#
Think of me as you dream
E
I kiss the sorrow of your soul
F#
And pray to god my soul to keep...
B
Death’s specter looming close
F#
the plug is pulled from machines
E
No breath escaping from my chest
F#
And this night has took me away
B
My time is drawing near
F#
salvation comes so swiftly
E
forever to be laid to rest
F#
Embrace my past for the dying day
(chorus)
(repeat chorus)
B F#
We tried-oh how we tried
Blame rests on hands of mine
E
No place left for me inside
F# B
Released from the demons on the day I died...(x2)
