Lyrics

The Years Of Death And Dying

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I am the years of death and dying

I tear with gripping teeth

I prey upon all the weary

Eliminate the weak

Not a day in your life passes

When you won't think of me

No thoughts and prayers can save you

So get up off of your knees

When I sense a weakness

I move in with blazing speed

Mothers, brothers, fathers and sons

It matters not to me

I'm a force of nature pure and sure

I've killed through all of time

When a gale force wind blows through you

You'll know that you are mine

I am legend, I'm your end

You'll wither when I'm near

I'm the years of death and dying

The sum of all your fears

You may have had a brush with me

Escaped and saved yourself

Most likely I was occupied

With killing someone else

Legends fall when I come to call

As I plan my next attack

Petty things won't matter

Just ask the man in black

The rage is gone and so is bon

So young in their demise

I ended the eruption

I took them in their prime

I'm a force of nature pure and sure

I've killed through all of time

When a gale force wind blows through you

You'll know that you are mine

I am legend, I'm your end

You'll wither when I'm near

I'm the years of death and dying

The sum of all your fears

I cull the herd with no remorse

Taking souls along the way

I'm here to set the balance

Of all you have to pay

I turned Ziggy into stardust

I've been killing ever since

I took an eagle from the sky

I even killed a prince

Struck down the queen

Bid farewell to kings

I took the angel of death

I'm always at the ready

To take away your breath

I'm a force of nature pure and sure

I've killed through all of time

When a gale force wind blows through you

You'll know that you are mine

I am legend, I'm your end

You'll wither when I'm near

I'm the years of death and dying

The sum of all your fears
