Lyrics for Doom Over Dead Man

The autumn clouds Are caving in And night comes Crawling black as sin Lightning strikes And rain begins A storm that tares my soul I toss and twizzle in my bed My thoughts are Spinning in my head Darkness nears Soon I'll be dead I'm losing all control I spent my life In foolish quest For gold and riches I'd contest And now I'm left With just regrets To late to change my ways My life it seems Has slipped away I leave no legacy to praise Nothing more for me to say My life has been a waste When! When time has come For me to leave When! When judgment's passed Upon my life When! A cold dark grave Awaits for me Will! Will my name Live endlessly? When! When time has come For me to leave When! When judgment's passed Upon my life When! A cold dark grave Awaits for me Will! Will my name Live endlessly? So I die but won't be mourned Broken and alone I wish that I were never born So I die and won't be missed No rune stone will be raised As my body rots away Die! All friends and Cattle pass away! Die! And death will come For every man! Die! But I know One thing never dies! Doom! The sentence passed Upon the dead! Now! The time has come For me to leave Now! And judgment's passed Upon my life Now! I will rest in my dark grave Will! They speak my name With reverence? My life has been a waste! No rune stone will be raised! So I die, but wont be born! I wish that I were never born! I rest here in my shallow grave! As my body, rots away!
