A tragic story of tale and woe
Of a woman who knew not in life where to go
Confused in the world, her head burning with ache
She knew that soon her life death would take
So she swore she would wait, for all of her time
Until she was moldy and covered with grime
Until he came to take her away
She would wait and wait and wait all day
But then she finally discovered what she must do
Which is a great honor, bestowed on few
She must meet the man in black, with his scythe and his cloak
Head on, before he came to take other folk
She would wait no longer, of that she was certain
Her play was now done, close her eyes and down curtain
She fell from the heavens and broke on to the ground
That's where her twisted, broken body lay found
So she lay there broken til the end of her days
Contemplating revenge and all of its ways
For he did not not come, the man garbed in black
Even though she went through the trouble of getting him back
And all the kings horses and all the kings men
Couldn't mend the poor girl together again
