Another hearse is drawn
And woe to the young
With a throat smooth as a lamb
Have you seen death singin'?
Have you seen death singin'?
Yet dry as a branch not snapping
And he does not sing a thing mournful
He throws back his head
On a life rapidly fading
Have you seen death singin'?
In the straw colored light
And he does not sing a thing mournful
A mother's vain delight
And woe to the sun
Have you seen death singin'?
And the straw colored curls are turning
In a child's leather purse
And may ribbons streaming
With a throat smooth as a lamb
Have you seen death swimming?
Have you seen death singin'?
Have you seen death singin'?
Have you seen death singin'?
He sings of youth enraged
Have you seen death singin'?
He sings a black embrace
Have you seen death singin'?
Have you seen death singin'?
Have you seen death singin'?
Have you seen death singin'?
And the burning of Atlanta
Have you seen death singin'?
Yet dry as a branch not snapping
Have you seen death singin'?
And these viral times
Have you seen death swimming?
He throws back his head
And white opals swimming
And woe to the dawn
In the straw colored light
In the straw colored light
