He was out to get me

He was out to get me 

With sorrow in tomorrow

One could only fear today

Knowing my body would be lying underneath soon to decay

I took him oh so lightly

Because reality didn’t seem to frighten me

It was only when I took his hand did I feel afraid and only then did I understand that I was truly alone

But he was alone too and there was no way one could possibly not have known

And yet he was still out to get me

Ready to catch me
