Live by the sword!
Die for the Lord!
Call down the vultures
To dine on the corpse!

I was thinking about all the forgotten children who die before their parents, and this song is about one of those poor bastards becoming Death's apprentice. Death to me is a much more imaginative concept than God - I thought it would be interesting to think about someone training to be his apprentice and learning to reap souls."

this song since the day I heard it. Months later after a half dozen sketches I finally got it. Wanted to make the vultures more skeletal like so they'd be more symbolic and less lteral, but it that would be too Ashes of the Wake-like.
If you like hardcore punk or just hard rock in general please
give the Grey Britain album a listen, at least a few songs, it's seriously one of the best albums of 2009.

Plus the perspective on the scythe makes the metal blade thingy look small, apearing like death is waving a chils baby scythe. Therfore it's CUTE
