Until death earns its dues

Whispers in the shadows, calling out my name

A silent invitation, playing life’s cruel game

I walk through storms and battles, scars beneath my skin

Death can have me when it earns me, only then I’ll let it in

Chasing fleeting moments, shadows on the wall

Fighting for tomorrow, torn between the rise and fall

But till that final hour, I’ll stand and face the storm

Holding onto hope, still feeling warm

Death can have me when it earns me, till then I’ll carry on

In the face of darkness, I will rise at dawn

Dancing with my fears, I break through every chain

Waiting for the call, or breaking free from pain

In the silence, I hear the echoes of my soul

A battle within, making me whole

When it’s time to go, I’ll meet my fate

Until then, I’ll live and love, no time to wait

So let the shadows come, I won’t be afraid

Living every moment, not a step betrayed

Death can have me when it earns me, that’s the only way

Until then, I’ll chase the sun and make my stay
