The window of your bedroom wall
Protects you from the cold
Yet the image on the outside
Quickly makes you old
The final whisp, your dying breath
Brings me close to you
And when I'm there to close your neck
Your days on earth are through
I am the reaper
Solemn and grim
I relieve pain
Let the end begin
The flowers in the darkened room
Feel the mourners' tears
Cries of anguish in the night
Add to the fear
Thunder, rain and distant screams
All are here today
The living souls dress in black
And pray for your remains
I am the reaper
Solemn and grim
I relieve pain
Let the end begin
Eternal rest, eternal peace
The only thing you know
Torment that once burned in you
Is now cold as your stone
I can feel another heart
Calling out to me
Another life tired of pain
And screaming, put me to sleep
Please Mr. Reaper
Solemn and grim
Release my pain
And let the end begin
Oh, let the end begin
Please, please Mr. Reaper
The lyrics LET THE END BEGIN of SAINT VITUS is also present in the album Die healing (1995)
Saint Vitus è una band di doom metal statunitense formatasi a Los Angeles nel 1979 sotto il nome Tyrant. Il cambio di nome avvenne nel 1981, segnando l'inizio della loro carriera come uno dei pilastri del genere doom metal. La musica dei Saint Vitus si caratterizza per un suono lento e pesante, influenzato dal heavy metal classico e dal blues. Le loro canzoni spesso esplorano temi oscuri e introspettivi, con testi che riflettono la malinconia e il disagio esistenziale. Tra i brani più rappresentativi figurano "Born Too Late", "Die Slowly" e "The Serpent's Tongue". L'album di debutto omonimo del 1984 è considerato un classico del genere doom metal, insieme a opere successive come "Saint Vitus II" (1985) e "V" (1987). La band ha influenzato numerose altre band doom metal e continua ad essere una presenza significativa nel panorama musicale underground.
