Well, I am Death
none can excel.
I'll open the door to Heaven or Hell.
O Death someone would pray,
could you wait to call me another day?
The children prayed
the preacher preached
Time and Mercy is out of your reach.
I'll fix your feet til you can't walk
I'll lock your jaw til you can't talk
I'll close your eyes so you can't see
this very hour come and go with me.
Death, I come to take the soul
Leave the body and leave it cold.
To drop the flesh off of the frame
Dirt and worm both have a claim.

O Death, O Death,
Won't you spare me over til another year?
My mother came up to my bed
placed a cold towel upon my head.
My head is warm, my feet are cold
Death is moving upon my soul.
O, Death, how you're treating me.
You closed my eyes so I can't see.
You're hurting my body, you made me cold,
you run my life right out of my soul.
O, Death, please consider my age
please don't take me at this stage.
My wealth is all at your command,
if you'll remove your icy hand.

O, the young, the rich or poor,
all alike to me you know.
No wealth, no land, no silver, no gold,
Nothing satisfies me but your soul.

O Death, O Death,
Won't you spare me over til another year?

Doc, you slay me!

Hmm... did you use the watercolor filter? Interesting effects! (Oh, and I like the image.)

Always a hoot! Thanks for sharing!

No, hauksdottir, I used a whole bunch of different filters, but not the watercolor. The watercolor filter tends, in my opinion, to step on the image too much, unless you're working with a really large image.

Ah, Another Camper fan! Love that song. Very cool image to boot.
