Azrael Lyrics

He appears beside my bed

A vision of pure dread

A dark figure cloaked

His garment black as smoke

He always comes at night

In the depths of my turmoil

The angel of death to take me away

To return me to the soil

Frozen in fear

But I'll go without a tear

I can't turn away

From this nightmare

I know this is my fate

This is my cross to bear

I know these visions

Portend my death

I'm living on borrowed time

And there's not much left

I cannot make it stop

This nightly torment

My blood is chilled by fear

As I desperately repent

And I turn to God for comfort

My trembling hands are stilled

I can't turn away

From this nightmare

I know this is my fate

This is my cross to bear
