lyrics

. Death Went Fishing : casting lines and . out looking for souls . the sad, unhappy ones . distressed distraught ones . he will return . he will return again . wracked and ruined . we lie in this place . bones heavy on this earth . in thrall to darkness . he will return . he will return again . let us stay here . hand twined in hand . we can await him . we can outwit him . he will return . he will return again . death went fishing . looking for souls . spinning in emptiness . the lost and lonely . he will return . he will return again .
