Trang Death (English cover) Cover version of the original Russian song "Death" by Trang, adapted for English-speaking audiences

I know that Death walks close behind
She creaks and shakes her head — unkind
Her scythe can never reach me, though she tries
I know the Dark Lord waits below
For Death — the slave of Earth's bright show
He always waits for her with hungry eyes

I've seen girls fairer than the Moon
Their tempting glance — our ruin
I've seen death, I've seen blood
I've seen hatred, rage, the flood
And all that lives in us

But I won't give in — not for free!
I'm my own master and serf — that's me!
I'll die when midnight's bell will ring
But now, right now, it's time to sing!
