Lyrics
**[Verse 1]**
The reaper came to me,
In the silence after three.
A shadow cloaked in black,
No mercy, no turning back.
He said, “You bear the mark,”
His voice was cold and stark.
“By this time tomorrow,
You’ll be gone, drowned in sorrow.”
**[Chorus]**
Why me? Why now?
I was just learning how
To live, to love, to dream.
This can’t be what it seems.
Why not someone old and gray?
Why must I fade away?
I had a life to lead,
But death won’t hear me plead.
**[Verse 2]**
I said, “I’m to marry soon,
Beneath the silver moon.”
He said, “There’s no mistake,
Your soul, I’m here to take.”
My hands began to shake,
My heart too much to break.
Why must I be the one?
My life had just begun.
**[Chorus]**
Why me? Why now?
I was just learning how
To laugh, to dance, to sing.
To wear a wedding ring.
Why not the man down the street,
Whose heart forgot to beat?
I’ve done no wrong, can’t you see?
So why must it be me?
**[Bridge]**
Couldn’t I sign a deal?
Trade time for something real?
I’d give the world to stay,
But he just turned away.
No more tears, no more light,
No more stars to kiss goodnight.
No more dreams to chase or find—
Just silence left behind.
**[Final Chorus]**
Why me? Why now?
I’ll never know just how
The world could be so cold,
To take me ‘fore I’m old.
I was kind, I was true,
Had a life I never knew.
But the reaper made it clear—
Tomorrow, I disappear.
