Aram Stefanian - Necrophobia

Linda worked night shift in the cemetery
When she spotted a child praying at a grave
Clothed in a white robe, he looked extraordinary
And reminded her of her late brother Dave
Once he looked her in the eye, she felt sudden fear
He said he was an angel descended from heaven
His mom was human, and after her death none was dear
He couldn't grow up, and would remain at the age of seven
Before he flew back, he could fulfill Linda's cherished wish
She said she had suffered from necrophobia from way back
To dispel her fear, she took on that job, yet it was devilish
Night after night she had nightmares as she hit the sack
The angel grew wistful and said, ''We'll pay a flying visit to the Kingdom of Death
You won't fall from his grace if you save your breath''
