Don't Run

Death is nothing to fear

He can sneak up behind you and whisper in your ear

You never know if he’s six feet behind or six feet below

He can come as a surprise, with a neat little bow

Death can approach one or many

We want to stop him, to where he doesn’t approach any

He can’t kill us all at once

But he makes himself announced

Convincing others to do his work

Making himself known in New York

Leaving a scar, the U.S. will never recover from.

Even with New York, he is still the outcome

We send young souls directly into his arms

Yet all of them, one way or another, return

He may have brushed them with his hand

Or be holding a trigger that is planned.

Driving along down the dirt path.

They will never recover from the aftermath

Hiding in the dirt, like a coward fighting behind a wall.

He comes out with a loud bang which is usually his call.

Even without killing he can cause damage.

He will find your weakness and use it to his advantage.

After his call, he leaves his mark of scars on the heart.

With this all happening at once, it is very smart.

The moves executed with precision and precise planning.

Conducting all the tactics and all the mapping.

He has planned for this since the beginning, but we should not fear.

We don’t know when he will appear.

But what we do know is that when he does it’s our time.

As long as we have lived our life the way we wanted to then we had a good lifetime.

If he brushes with his hand then we are saved and he was just saying hello.

We never know

Until time is up.
