Lyrics
Intro – spoken, megaphone effect
Death knocks
I slam the door shut
But it comes back
Always… always…
Verse 1
Death plays with me
It sets me traps
But I don’t fall
Throws obstacles in my way
I change the road
Tries to trip me down
I stay on my feet
Verse 2
It tries to tempt me
I just ignore it
Then it gets angry
Offended, slams the door
Says I don’t respect it
And then returns
Always…
Chorus
Death is ironic
It makes fun of me
It calls and then vanishes
Gets offended if I don’t follow
And always comes back
Bridge
It courts me with a smile
Promises eternal peace
But it’s just a trick
Gets offended if I don’t follow
And always comes back
Verse 3
Death acts like a diva
Gets offended if I don’t follow
I let it talk
And I don’t move
Chorus
Death is ironic
It makes fun of me
It calls and then vanishes
Gets offended if I don’t follow
And always comes back
Verse 4
Death insists
Knocks even harder
I close my eyes
But it always comes back
Outro
Always…
Always…
Death laughs
Always…
