The Heathen’s Song

221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sv2k68JlL

Oh friends, my friends, the end’s the end,

So mend spirits; let love hear it.

One day, the day unforeseen,

Will come like a red rising sun.

221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21a9E9vYp4

Little demons, my cretins,

Reaper, Reaper, why the sweet grin.

221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3B15WNnHs

He said to me, a bitter dream,

“Oh friend, my friend, the end’s the end…”

221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQfq61r3UE

I think I need another drink,

Someone pass me up a cigar.

221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBSG6MkpTU

Oh friend, my friends, the end’s not far,

So mend spirits; let them hear it.

One day, that day so desolate,

Will dawn on unfair requisites.

221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPFVN7UtnA

Goodbye! Goodbye! My shining light!

In broken hearts lies your reprieve.

221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbOHiEL323

Goodbye! Goodbye! My guide-star!

In my mind you will never leave!

221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyt0WPwa39

Oh friend, my friends, the end’s the end…

Death doesn’t undue what he has done.

He never play games or pretends,

He cares not if you’re old or young.

221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsYFy4OKy9

Reaper! Reaper! Took my sister.

Why, Why, Did the Devil seek her?

221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXPFXCSozI

We all must die… I… I suppose.

When we go though not a soul knows.

221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZXx1SHsHo

Oh friends, my friends… the end’s the end…

So blend and blear the line with beer,

One day, that day, will soon appear,

For you or for the ones you find dear. 

221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9Scd0aGVo

So why not dance! Finish a drink,

Exchange a glance, forget to think,

Enjoy this time we get to spend.

221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeMgXxrpx5

The moments now, dancing with me,

With the Devil in her blue eyes.
