Feel a chill from the window
And the wind whisper in your name again and again
See your blood on the pillow
Like a million red roses fresh from the rain

Only the dead know
How a life with you would be
Only the dead know
And it's slowly killing me

See your face in the darkness
Hear your voice in the still of the night
But there's no sign of life
Why you left me this way
Lost in a dream, looking for answers I'll never find

Only the dead know
Why they've taken you away
Only the dead know
And they're never telling me
Only the dead know
How a life with you would be
Only the dead know
And it's slowly killing me

Only the dead know
Only the dead know
But they're never gonna say
Only the dead know
Why are they taking you away
Only the dead know
And it's slowly killing me
Slowly killing me

Only the dead know
Only the dead know
Only the dead know
Only the dead know
Only the dead know
Only the dead know
Only the dead know
How I'm dying to be free
You know it's really killing me
