I Am Death

I am every person that you hate
I'm the survivor of an awful fate
I'm all the things you loathe in one
I'm the child of the world undone.
I'm the liar, the killer, and the whore
I'm the one you love and more.
I'm your nightmare and your wildest whim
and mine's the voice above the din.
I'm every thought you never had
and every cause when you've been sad.
I've been waiting long, it's true
to take the thing I want from you.
My name is Death, and I have come
to finish what Life has begun.
