I put a daisie in my hand
Death comes even closer
a beauty more than I can stand
Death comes even closer

I put a lover in my heart
Death comes even closer
I put the breakup out of mind
Death comes even closer

My friends die before me
Death comes even closer
Their casket lay before me
Death comes even closer

Another day comes and goes
Death comes ever closer
Lay me in the ground
Death is here.
