[Intro]
They always come crawling back
Whatever walks there walks alone
[Interlude]
How they thought that there were other dimensions
You know, other, other worlds
All around us, and how they wanted to try and make, um
A window
You know, so they could look through and see what's on the other side
Well, maybe your window turned out to be a door, didn't it?
Not mine, those scientists'!
Oh, the scientists!
Yes, the scientists!
They must have ripped a hole open by accident, this other world came spilling through to ours
That's what Donaldson was saying to me right before he killed himself, I didn't understand the half of it
It ain't my fault!
[Chorus]
Only the dead know
Only the dead know
[Verse 1]
Tears in the fabric
Lurking in the shadows
In the doorways of unreality
He says his name is Death
The truth is, he is something worse
They always come crawling back
Whatever walks there walks alone
[Interlude]
How they thought that there were other dimensions
You know, other, other worlds
All around us, and how they wanted to try and make, um
A window
You know, so they could look through and see what's on the other side
Well, maybe your window turned out to be a door, didn't it?
Not mine, those scientists'!
Oh, the scientists!
Yes, the scientists!
They must have ripped a hole open by accident, this other world came spilling through to ours
That's what Donaldson was saying to me right before he killed himself, I didn't understand the half of it
It ain't my fault!
[Chorus]
Only the dead know
Only the dead know
[Verse 1]
Tears in the fabric
Lurking in the shadows
In the doorways of unreality
He says his name is Death
The truth is, he is something worse
