Time Is the Reaper Lyrics

Light the candle
Touch the flame
Close your eyes
But feel no pain

Higher and Higher
Lower and Lower
I've sunk and climbed
To every High

Deeper and deeper
Time is the Reaper
A hooded soul
A face we know

Watch the words
Roll off your tongue
But all I hear
Is a song unsung

Burn a candle
Hide your pain
Drink a life
And guess my name

Higher and Higher
Lower and lower
I've sunk and climbed
To every high

Deeper and deeper
Time is the Reaper
A hooded soul
A face we know

Drunk in life
You'll sip my pain
Rest assured
You'll know my name
