The autumn clouds are caving in

And night comes crawling, black as sin

Lightning strikes, and rain begins

A storm that tears my soul



I toss and tumble in my bed

My thoughts are spinning in my head

Darkness nears, soon I'll be dead

I'm losing all control



I've spent my life in foolish quests

for gold and riches, I confess

And now I'm left with just regrets

Too late to change my ways



My life, it seems, has slipped away

I leave no legacy to praise

Nothing more for me to say

My life has been a waste



When!

My time has come for me to leave

When!

When judgment's passed upon my life

When!

A cold dark grave will wait for me

Will!

Will my name live endlessly?

When!

My time has come for me to leave

When!

When judgment's passed upon my life

When!

A cold dark grave will wait for me

Will!

Will my name live endlessly?



So I die

But won't be mourned

Broken and alone

I wish that I were never born



So I die and won't be missed

No rune stone will be raised

As my body rots away



Die!

All friends and cattle pass away

Die!

And death will come for every man

Die!

But I know one thing never dies

Doom!

The sentence passed upon the dead

Now!

The time has come for me to leave

Now!

When judgement's passed up on my life

Now!

Now I will rest in my dark grave

Will!

They speak my name with reverence?



My life has been a waste

No rune stone will be raised

So I die, but won't be mourned

I wish that I were never born

I rest here in my shallow grave

As my body rots away
