Death Be Thy Name Lyrics

Venom Death Be Thy Name

When you're least expecting my call
Or at the end, life descends, olden age you fall
Just remember I'm a promised fact
There's no way around fate, no secret pact

Many through the ages they have tried
Believe me that I know, they all failed and died
Death be thy name, death be thy name
Death be thy name, death be thy name

Searching for an ancient tale or myth
Read it on a book or heard it from the wind
Takes you to the edges of the earth
Even try to steal it from the newly breathed

But your efforts are a waste of time
You can't hide forever, you'll still be mine
Aarghh, I'm coming to get you

Now the scientist misunderstood
Can't make immortality inside a test tube
I don't know if I should laugh or cry
Take it as an insult or credit you're trying

But for now the old saying holds fast
He who laughs the longest
Is he who laughs last
