You are born to die. That's what they say.
We all are destined for a funeral day.
Death is black. Death is dark.
You can read about it in the gospel of Mark.
Death's in your future. It lies ahead.
We live but a short time and soon will be dead.
Heaven's ahead if you live your life well.
Is heaven for you? I cannot tell.
Graveyards are full of victims of death.
Everyone's someday going to take their final breath.
Laid out in coffins for all to see.
Death is eventual and our destiny.
Is death the end? Is there anything more?
There's the gates of hell or else heaven's door.
So live your life well and death will begin
a future spent happy inside the gates of heaven.
