Lyrics
Verse 1
She was seventeen with autumn in her eyes,
Walked through graveyards like they were butterflies.
Others crossed the street, whispered prayers at night,
But she just smiled at the shadow in the light.
Pre-Chorus
They say he wears black like a second skin,
Face of a boy with the world tucked in.
When you see him — you're already gone,
But she saw him first, and she stayed too long.
Chorus
Oh, she fell for Death, with his soft grey stare,
Fingers made of frost and midnight air.
Every soul screams when his name is said,
But she just whispered, "Come closer instead."
She fell for Death — and Death fell too,
For the only girl who wasn't scared of blue.
Verse 2
He came for her grandmother, quiet as snow,
Expected tears, expected her to go.
Instead she poured him tea, said, "Sit and stay,"
And the boy who ends the world forgot his way.
Pre-Chorus
He'd never known a hand that didn't shake,
Never known a heart that didn't break.
She traced the sorrow carved beneath his hood —
Told him, "Even endings can be good."
Chorus
Oh, she fell for Death, with his soft grey stare,
Fingers made of frost and midnight air.
Every soul screams when his name is said,
But she just whispered, "Come closer instead."
She fell for Death — and Death fell too,
For the only girl who wasn't scared of blue.
Bridge
"I cannot love you," he said through the rain,
"For to touch you once is to end your name."
She took his palm and pressed it to her cheek —
"Then let me be the ending that you seek."
Final Chorus – softer
So she fell for Death, and the world went still,
On a quiet hill where the lilies spill.
They found her sleeping with a smile so red,
And a single black feather beside her head.
Outro
They say on autumn nights when the wind runs cold,
You can hear two footsteps where there's only one soul.
A boy in black, and a girl in white —
Walking hand in hand... into the night.
