Death's Bells I don't know why I feel this way My young life so full of promise. But I can't climb out of this pit I'm in And I can't hear anything beyond the ringing in my head Death rings his bells when he wants you And it is hard to deny his call. When he wants you he will never quit Until you finally fall. Falling farther than you thought possible. For you thought you were at the bottom of that pit. But if you ever answer him The hole opens and swallows you whole You sink in slowly Like in a quicksand pool. And where you go I couldn't tell you. But often I think It must be better than this. Cause my pain is so great. And I feel like death is my only escape Sarah-Jane Hunt Copyright ©2003 Sarah-Jane Hunt
