Letra de Death Singing

[Intro:]
In the straw-colored light
In light rapidly changing
On a life rapidly fading

[Chorus 1:]
Have you seen death singing[x2]

[Chorus 2:]
With a throat smooth as a lamb
Yet dry as a branch not snapping
He throws back his head
And he does not sing a thing mournful

[Chorus 1:]
Have you seen death singing[x3]
In the straw-colored light

[Verse 2:]
He sings a black embrace
And white opals swimming
In a child's leather purse
Have you seen death swimming[x2]

[Coro 2]

[Chorus 1;]
Have you seen death singing[x3]
In the straw-colored light

[Bridge:]
He sings of youth enraged
And the burning of Atlanta
And these viral times
And May ribbons streaming
And straw-colored curls a-turning
A mother's vain delight
And woe to the sun
And woe to the dawn
And woe to the young
Another hearse is drawn

[Coro:]
Have you seen death singing
In the straw-colored light
