and in the end you know just how to fear

but we have the compulsion to create
you want to name this this thing you cannot bear

or think that you are just the toys of fate
and in the end you know just how to fear

the children all line up and want to cheer
they cannot see what's waiting at the gate
you want to name this thing you cannot bear

as you get older you learn not to stare
nor ever ask the price of all the freight
and in the end you know just how to fear

you have been told that you have to beware
both of the function and the coming date
you want to name this thing you cannot bear
and in the end you know just how to fear
